If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

I don't think it ever was. Old minis (i.e. 60's ones), they were/are cool. The 'new' mini is, let's be honest, a golf in a nice suit and is trying far too hard. Therefore, by definition, not cool.

Don't let BMW hear you call it a Golf!

Doesn't matter who makes the golf, the mini has assumed the role of hot hatch de jour in many ways.

It's am M1 in a Morris Minor sized Mini body. Horrid. I do remember Jezza saying the Mazda did with the MX5 what MG didn't do - which is make a British sports car.

An M1? The M1 was a georgous 70s racing car, with a 3.5L engine, I don't see anything from the M1 in the Mini...
