The company I used to work for wouldnt finance Coopers because of the steering pump failures.

That's a pity, but good to know - I was thinking about a Cooper S Works...

It should be ok, its not an S

Nah - just the standard 1.6 Cooper - plenty speedy enough for her at the moment

Surprisingly cheap on insurance too, so it seems :D

From experience (sister's car) .. keep a close eye on the coolant. It has a nasty habit of being there one minute and boiled away the next, at a cost of $2200 headgasket swap.
