German road test reviews
The german car magazine with the best reputation "auto motor und sport" has published the first full road test of the Cooper S including acceleration, braking and dynamics test numbers. Overall verdict: "Among the subcompacts the Cooper S plays a very special role with very good performance, high driving safety, best handling and acceptable ride." It is a real GT and more a 2- than a 4-seater. The brakes disappoint under stress."
In fact the stopping distances are quite good with cold discs, producing a deceleration of 1.01 Gs . After ten stopps from 62 mph the braking force decreases to 0.87 Gs.
That´s quite remarkable as this effect couldn´t be noted on the Cooper with exactly the same brakes.
The acceleration:
0-62 mph: 7.7 s
0-75 mph: 10.6 s
0-100 mph: 19.2 s (Cooper: 27.8 s)
The last remark of the review is indeed very encouraging for all Cooper S fans: "...nearly 20.000 €. Much, but not too much for a small Porsche."
In the future I´m going to use this thread for further interesting reviews. Another magazine "sport auto" has announced to put the Cooper S through what they call the hardest sports car test in the world: The "sport auto" Supertest, including 0-125-0 mph combined acceleration and braking procedure, high speed cornering, slalom and evasive manover tests and last but not least some fast laps on the 13-mile Nurburgring with it´s legendary track profile.
