Just read the article. They pretty much slag off the cupra and praise the Cooper S. They do say the straight line speed is great and the car has impressive grip but in return the ride is harsh and the steering lacks feel. What did make me laugh is they say the mini has great build quality. Yeah right.

figures:

0-60mph

Cupra - 6.8

Mini - 7.1

30-70mph

Cupra - 6.4

Mini - 6.4

30-50 3rd

Cupra - 3.0

Mini - 4.2

40-60 4th

Cupra - 4

Mini - 5.5

Seems as quick as a chipped Fabia vRS that. Must be pushing out 180 bhp as stock I reckon.

what times do the chipped FAbs get for the above?
