I had a 2008 non turbo and I believe it is the same as a 2009 non turbo....
RUN AWAY. MASSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES. Like more than a qt per tank of fuel before the car even has 100K miles on it. And something I heard regarding valve guides coming loose and sliding up and down with the valve.

The Cooper cylinder head is different from the Cooper S. Here are a couple of the main differences:
The 2007-2010 R56 Cooper had dual Vanos and the Cooper S from the same years used single Vanos.
The Cooper used port injection while the Cooper S was direct injected.
