Yes they are great. Very underrated too! (good because it means the price is lower....although it is starting to rise now).

I like them because they handle a bit better than a mini and they dont rust. Especially now I dont have the steel rear subframes in.

I see you have registered on the Midas forum. You are the 200th member :withstupid:.

Keep your eyes peeled in Ebay and the Midas forum for Bronze's. They come up pretty regular.

Price for a Bronze seems to fluctuate between 300-2000 depending on condition.

All the best and good luck!

They're definitely a love it or hate it thing. I've noticed when I've showed my friends pictures of them, some think they look awesome, others think I'm mad. I love the way they have been designed to be aerodynamic, I can imagine it gives it a big advantage over a normal Mini in terms of top end performance and economy.

Thanks for letting me on the forum - going to enquire now!
