    The MINI Roadster is the first two-seater convertible MINI has ever produced, and is designed to compete with the Mazda MX-5 and Audi TT Roadster. The fabric roof folds away in just 10 seconds and the boot is a useful 240 litres, whether the roof is up or down. Only Cooper models are available, including one diesel, the Cooper SD, with either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic gearbox.

    I loved this review. I want this car, particularly because I have shitty friends who can't take care of their cars so they break down and ask me for rides. Now I'd have an excuse to say "sorry, no room, just me an my dog in the front seat."

    I'm not a "hairdresser" but I really love that guy! Way much more funny than top gear guys.... "Miles of headroom... " and when having a fun with sporty sound of engine and speeding around, just like a big boy! Well done Matt ;-)

    I think the MINI coupes and roadsters will become expensive collectables in 20-30 years

      I’m hoping to buy one to replace my countryman

      I have a 2012 Coupe S and I love the car, plan on buying a Roadster JCW next and have the pair... I also think they will become collectibles in the future within the MINI community. There's still plenty out there for sale, get you a nice one before things change.

    I love mine. I can't bear to part with it either. It always puts a smile on my face when driving it and seeing it parked up :)

    • @MrFLORUSSE

      yeah I know the feeling - bought mine 2.5 years ago and I have to change it... Breaks my heart... ;(

  • @bliglum
    @bliglum 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    It's funny, more people would likely think the MX5 Miata was more of a "girly" car, even though it's one of the best drivers cars.. Of coarse, if you're secure enough, none of that will matter. And that's why I tremendously enjoy my MX-5!!!

  • @okies90
    @okies90 11 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    "you've got miles of headroom" lol dw Matt I thought it was funny

  • @bliglum
    @bliglum 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah, I think that stigma is mostly for the MX-5 here (for me) in America.. Because it's small, and cute looking. Shame too, because alot of guys are missing out on a very fun to drive, affordable, and reliable little car.

  • @nO_d3N1AL
    @nO_d3N1AL 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    what's the difference between this and the mini coupe? Is this a cheaper and worse built version?

  • @IKhanNot
    @IKhanNot 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    $39k here in Canada. Not worth it new but as a CPO this will be a great quirky car.

  • @happylac100

    can you review the clubman?

  • @minibus1351
    @minibus1351 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    this is what I firmly believe it. good words. i guess matt was being funny cuz i think he owned a mx-5 miata at some point.

  • @dickgrayson4179

  • @DennisBerkhout1
    @DennisBerkhout1 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Although I like the roadster I do think the normal hatchback is the best on offer. The least fancy and most "Mini" Mini

    • @djmhyde
      @djmhyde 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      mee too, bui only us and a few pepole like it, cause BMW will drop the production of this car, and will keep only with the 4 seater cabriolet, cause the roadster didn't sold well

  • @bliglum
    @bliglum 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    No no, I wasn't referring to you my friend.. Didn't mean for that to be implied... I just mean in general.
    And you're right, it's of course, not coarse! XD.

  • @onraj9mm
    @onraj9mm 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    i still dont get why is MINI making fifteen hundred models of basically the same car.
    dont get me wrong, i would love me some JCW cooper.

  • @djmhyde

  • @MrHubb1
    @MrHubb1 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Oh dont get me wrong I have no problem with Matt at all. I was referring to some of the comments that people had posted. I think Matt and Rebbecca are the most honest car reviewers on youtube. I think the immature comments are probably from the same tool bags that post disgusting comments about Rebbecca whenever she posts a review.

  • @PaNDa14KiiTTy
    @PaNDa14KiiTTy 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I like the bulky design but at the same time it looks ugly lol they should make a hardtop convertible maybe i might consider owning one :]

    • @majorgeeks
      @majorgeeks 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      LOL,, they did. It was called the coupe. Of course, now it's gone so it's used or nothing.

    It's inconvenient to lock secure your convertible top doing 20 per hour? I'm amaze it even lets you put the top down or up while the car is in motion. That's accident waiting to happen.

    @G0ML333 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    if you want a mini, don't buy the convertible. the mx5 is my pick of the bunch, as it is more invoulving to drive, and more comfy when you're not in schumacher mode.
