Get yourself a Mini Cooper S
Get an R53 (up till 2004) as they are Supercharged rather than Turbocharged.
Spend the rest of the cash getting it tweaked up to around 250bhp.
- 15% reduction supercharger pulley
- uprated intercooler (or uprated front-mount intercooler for more 'nom nom' value.
- 550cc Injectors
- Racing Camshaft
- JCW Airbox
- Uprated Spark Plugs
- Tune (if US, get done by Mynes)
- Racing Manifold + Exhaust System(Then you can lower it, upgrade mounts etc, nice wheels and most importantly a Big Brake Kit to help you stop on a dime! JCW Brembo kit is a goodun)
Believe me, you'll never have as much fun in a car. Sticks to the road like glue. VERY VERY safe cars, Solid. and the best part .... people majorly underestimate them. There's nothing more satisfying than sinking the foot and blowing away someone in a car worth four or five time the value of yours ;)
- with a racing head you can see up to about 280bhp but itl be another few grandmicrokorg
- True! Mine has around 208hp now. I don't think i am gonna tune it more. Stage 3 is enough.Gizz
- im at 212whp/249bhp hopefully going for some new tweaks soon :)microkorg
- drove a '04 JCW it was super fast. soooooo much fun. couldn't stop smiling.akrok
