Why not really scratch the itch and get an original Mini Cooper.

Have it for a year and you'd probably make a small profit when it came to selling :y :y

Yes, you're probably right but have now got used to more comfort and goodies e.g. aircon, decent headlights, comfortable seats, decent heating/ventilation etc so afraid that will be a no no  ;D  :y

have you considered something like a volvo C30 D5 gear"gay"tronic? they're about the same size as the new golf and the D5's quite a good engine

Vauxhall Monaro, BMW 530d 330d depending on my millage

I was meaning to say that ;D

530d good machine, comfy, good performance and economic to run..

Yup - Sadly they carry the usual BMW price tag, but if the bike is anything to go buy, its worth it!

But you are looking for a quick thrill before getting sensible, reliving a lost childhood,  even the later RSP Coopers offer loads of fun, keep for a year for some winter and then summer fun, sell on and then get boring..... :y
