Can you tell some more thoughts and comparisons between the two? How is one compared to the other when it comes to leaving with it every day . Do you ever miss the 1m when driving the GP and if yes can you say why?
Do you feel like having 2 seats only is inconvenient ?
Do you miss RWD when you feel like having more fun on a twisty road?
What about the driving position in the mini compared to the BMW?
They both have things in common, and are both different aswell. They both turn heads regardless of where you are, people stop to take photos of both cars, people asking what the hell you are driving because they have never seen it before . But the 1M was a beast, RWD was so much fun, and you also had the option to take it easy, and relax in the 1m it was much more comfortable, where as with the Mini it just lures you into downshifting and flying round corners, and less comfortable with a much stiffer suspension. they are both very hard to compare, but both brilliant in different ways.


To all the people commenting on the post saying they could never go from a 1M to a Mini, remember its temporary, its just a little run around until my new toy arrives
