Default Mini S conv. John works edition

Hey guys, so I currently drive a new 325i Bimmer... like it and all, butI have always wanted a mini and never owned one.
I have been reading lots about them, and currently thinking about buying a S conv. john work's edition 2008.
All advice and opinions are welcome...

Please share as I am a newbie when it comes to mini.

Thanks

I hate a BMW and the Mini Cooper John Cooper Works and TBH, I like the Mini a lot more.

I have a 2008 Mini S JCW.

It is just awesome! Not a huge gain in HP compared to the previous JCW kit, but this is all you can get under the factory warranty now, so that will have to do... And trust me, it does! 38.64 MPG so far (Mostly all HWY miles). 0 to 60 in a hair less than 6 seconds, and I got mine up to 110mph in less than an 1/8 of a mile going up hill with 500lbs of people (2 of us) in it.

I do not know what else to tell you other than this is my first Mini, and I love this thing more than anything I have ever loved in my entire life. That includes the 2003 Harley Davidson FatBoy I sold to buy my Mini too!

If you want my opinion, I say ditch the Beemer and get the Mini, because one of these two cars is really cool, and the other one is nothing more than a tag that says... That is not a topic for this forum though.
