polizei u have any problems with yours...

 

S60R no doubt

 

I love S Minis and if I was in the market for a new car it would be a tough choice between it and a GTI. That being said I have always had a soft spot for the S60R. I guess that isn't much help. :lol:

Whatever you decide I look forward to a Rigz post. :thumbup:

 

Have you test driven them side by side yet?

dave.

 

Thats a tough one. I like the blown Mini because its a streetable gokart and the thing is fast. Everytime i see a S60-R i think of the one that won speed world challenge gt at mosport a year ago in the rain by a lap. I also go to see it in person at Road America. It was one hot car. As you can see im no help, sorry:screwy:

 

V70R...

'nuff said

 

Volvo ftw. quick, comfy, awesome!

minis are so unsatisfying

sit in both and the choice will be obvious

Actually its the other way around.... When I drove the S60R I was expecting so much and it came out soooo BLAHHHH talk about boring....

ppsshhh mini driver

 

MINI's are fun, but you have to be dedicated to owning one. And no, my MINI has had no problems that I didn't cause. :lol: The vehicle is fine, but is a bit harsh! Basically the car throws you around, the suspension is very stiff, and my exhaust is reallllly loud. I'm leaning more towards a comfy car when I get a chance, which unfortunately isn't going to be for a couple more years. The MINI just beats my back up, to the point where I can't drive for more than 30 minutes or so (not highway) without having back pain, but that's probably just me.

That is a tough call! I would probably go with the S60R, mostly because I love everything about the car. However, the Mini Cooper S is smaller and may be more fun to drive. I have not driven a S60R, but I have driven the Mini Cooper S. Good luck with your choice, as I really don't know what car I would take. Both are on my list of possible next cars, along with a C30.

 

Volvo, but it is pricey when it comes toime for repair. 350hp is too easy for this car.

 

I'd choose the MINI, personally.

I like the S60R, but for me it'd always be a cool car that I'd rather borrow than own.

 

I think it depends on how much room you need and how much fun you need to have. I have also been obsessed ever since the MINI first came out, and totally understand the desire. I've also owned a Volvo and loved it. I think that the MINI is a much more unique car with a better following, especially worldwide. People will still remember the MINI 20 years from now, probably not the S60. If you need the extra room and can sacrifice that extra fun, go for the Volvo and never look back. Motor on!

 

Volvo...

 

so its pretty much even but the volvo has the advantage..

 

Only Volvo I would consider is as a station wagon.

Station wagon Volvo > Mini > Volvo

 

polizei u have any problems with yours...

We have a Mini and we've had a fair amount of problems with it.


The latest I think is the Window motor. The cars got like 50k. My dad rolled his window down, heard a loud pop, and now it doesn't work. Add to the list: airbag sensors, random clunk in steering, rattling in dash, etc.

 

I would have to say 60r.
