My first 2 cars were Minis but unfortunately not one of them was a Cooper S 
Ford Anglia (Harry Potter car) at the front of the grid and a Cortina at the back
The Anglias and Cortinas went well with a twin cam lotus motor in them

They suited me OK as I am vertically challenged but you might be surprised at what can be done in a Mini as well as driving one 
Great on the hand brake spins on dirt or loose gravel

Funny you should say that as the fella who tuned my minis was over 6ft, maybe 6' 3 and his name was Phil Barnes
Phil raced a purple Cooper S which got nick-named at Oran Park as the "Purple People Eater"
Purple and also lends a bit from the name of the song
I think Phil lives out at Wellington and his ex race car might be in Orange
