Seriously, what are BMW doing with the Mini brand. This latest offering is beyond contempt.

So that's a little version of the big Mini?

I have no idea who dreams of these things, but they want a dry slap.
Sideways yo!

Bet it's not cheap either!  :laugh:

EDIT: Just read the Evo article, £23k before you add on your options, s**t a gold brick, that REALLY is expensive.

I think we can take our collective opinion on this car as a resounding "THUMBS DOWN !!"

These new variants of the Mini can do one. Yes to a JCW Cooper S but the rest are utterly pointless.

Its built for people who 'do lunch' and don't care how their cars drive or look.

They just have to be told its the thing to have.

Bloody awful just like the pointless coupe!
