    She's wrong about the space in the back. I went to the New Mini launch event and actually sat and drove the new Mini. I am 6ft 1" and I easily got my Dad in the back who is also 6ft without a problem whilst I was driving. It doesn't look like much room when just looking at it but trust me, there was more than enough :)

    Mini? It's bloody massive! What next, the HGV Mini. Lol!

      If you compare it to other cars it's still a proper mini. Also, all cars are getting bigger. For example the vw polo is almost as big as the first generations of the golf.

    Brilliant review! The MINI exudes style that is true to it's roots. A fun car to drive and solidly built. In addition, you can customize it through the large parts and accessories catalogue to make it your own unique ride! I bought two for my young adult children...very easy to maneuver in the city and parking lot. They love it! Keep up the great reviews :)

    Please stop referring to VED as "road tax", it doesn't directly fund road repairs or construction.

      ...it's a tax for using your car on the road, not specifically for funding the road.
      All other taxes are named after what is taxed, not where the revenue supposedly goes.

    Well I do not like that the MINI grows in dimensions, but so is the lifecycle of most modern cars. I do like how this new version looks, it´s still MINI DNA and they managed to make it look slightly more dynamic a contained - That rear spoiler e.g. flow extremely nice with the roof and the extra black plastic edges does not take the look down either in fact I find that it even make the profile more clear.

    Mini does look a lot better as a three door, don’t like the new 5 doors! Maybe they should’ve done what Renault did with their Clio and abscured the extra doors in the styling.

    Tail lights like the original? Handing like the original? Have you seen or driven an original recently or are you just quoting from the bmw press pack? I'm an original mini owner. The 2001 model was a good effort but subsequent updates have taken it further and further from where it should be. This thing looks like a tank.

What is like to start up an engine in the morning when its freezing? are there any problems that i should be aware of?

  • @anythingyouwant29
    @anythingyouwant29 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The ride is probably bumpy due to the larger wheel selection on the test vehicle, maybe smaller wheels would make for a smoother long journey ride? The options on this car is crazy priced, sounds like mini is going for the old social preasure sales technique "If you cant afford it, there is always the DS3, more value for your money" haha seriously people actually fall for this pitch even today. Go for the DS3, far more advanced and much better ride.

  • @300bhpton
    @300bhpton 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    This review is very misleading in terms of mpg. You quote the 'official' figures but phrase them as "the vehicle will return x mpg". Which is completely untrue. Why not let people know what mpg you actually averaged during the review.

      @dreadfullheat 10 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Sinky If you are too young to know what an E-type is then you shouldn't be posting comments about cars! If your interest in cars was big enough you would know how the Jag looks like. I am 20 years old and I know how the Jag looks, I like the F-type which is kind of his "next generation". The mini is an iconic car just like its shape/ looks.
