say what you will, the mini is a distinctive car. I like the look of it, and it seems to be aging well over time.
This car handles wonderfully - it just makes driving fun. It sticks to the road and corners like a much more expensive performance car.
The turbocharged 1.6 has more than enough power for the car. It revs happily and provides plenty of torque across the whole power band.
Like the exterior, the interior is distinctively styled. The colors and design choices make for a nice place to spend time.
Fit and finish is outstanding. The materials are all high-quality, and are put together very well.
