I have the GP Mk I (2006) as a run around. Went for a quick blast in the Mk II but not long enough to judge properly for differences. Two things I do not like - it seems to be a Mini thing, is the ridiculous 'car jack' self locking doors and the high beam control. You pull the stalk for on and you pull it for off :banghead: .
so long as you aint wearing jeans with turn-ups, and as tight it looks like you're smuggling a budgie, i don't think the GP applies to the 'ghey's in Mini's' category.
My missus has one but I do admit to enjoying driving it. It is a real little hooligan - about as far removed from a girls car (driving experience) as you could ever imagine.
Proper hardcore, noisy, stiff, and very fast at less than 3 figure speeds. Not taken it on the track yet, but that will be rectified this year
