cil254,

I went and reread the thread you linked. I STILL believe that the 203 blows the 124 completely away when sitting in the drivers seat, just as the 124 blows away the 123 sitting in the drivers seat.

There is just NO COMPARISON. The problem was the nightmarish things that started going wrong and the thought of trying to pay a dealer to keep it going after it's out of warranty in a few months.

The car is just too complex. I think if I had waited a year after they were out instead of buying the first one off the boat, my experience might have been different. Notice I said MIGHT. The complexity is just too much.

It makes me sick to think about being in a position of having to give up such a great driving car.

William,

What leads you to believe Mini Cooper?

Have a great day,
