I'm sure the Justa owners will take it as they always do...keeping their mouths shut as they laugh their way to the bank, figuring how much less they are paying for their driving enjoyment than those of us with "S" complexes.

It might be costing us more - but I do like the rush I get when the Turbo kicks in.

Half of "Justa" owners. I used to have a straight Cooper and honestly, it hasn't made a difference haha.

As a cheap-assed Cooper [aka - Justa] owner,... I am pleased to report continuing success with my Cooper. Has returned loads of fun and I hope will continue to do so.

A remark like 'cheap-assed' needs be excused on this site, or at least discounted. There is a spectrum of mental ages and interest that post here. There is also a good deal of useful information - so let us not jump on a single, thoughtless remark and discount the value here.

There are individuals that cannot spell very well, want to know the lowest, most powerful, widest tires... they are expressing themselves the best that they can but in the end there is something for all here. Just, [or perhaps Justsa...] need to seek out the value.

In florida most premium fuel is 93 (e10-yuck) but there's a few stations that offer 91 for cheaper. I tried it from a 7-11, got less than stellar gas mileage. so i quit buying it. Tried it again at a Wawa station and got a CEL for "timing over retarded" a few days later. Could be a coincidence, but that scared me into keeping name brand premium 93 whenever i can just in case.
