Mini Convertible Cooper S (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Greg Fountain, 28 January 2009 10:00

All style and no substance? You could be forgiven for thinking so, but BMW values its reputation for dynamic excellence very highly, and the Mini has much to live up to. So don’t be too surprised to hear how good the Cooper S Convertible is, both as a driver’s car and as an increasingly neatly packaged piece of niche marketing. ...

Mini Cooper S long-term test goodbye

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

the CAR road test team, 11 December 2008 10:00

Long-term test goodbye – 11 December 2008 Our Mini Cooper S has gone back after a year’s motoring on the CAR fleet. It’ll be sorely missed and I maintain I’d rather have a Cooper S than any other hot hatch. Yes, a Renaultsport Clio might fly around corners with a smidge more attitude and a 500 Abarth might pack even more pizzazz ...

Mini Convertible (2009): the new R57 cabrio

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Simon Stiel, 28 November 2008 10:46

Mini has just issued the first photos of the new R57 Mini Convertible, which rolls into dealerships in March 2009 and follows the lead set by the latest hatchback. So it's cleaner, a little bit more polished inside and out, and there will probably be evidence of some middle-aged spread when we drive it in 2009.So what's new on the ...

Mini E (2008) electric CAR review: the battery-powered Mini

Rated 4 out of 54

Gavin Green, 19 November 2008 09:32

The Mini has gone electric – and CAR is first behind the battery car's wheel. BMW has built a batch of 500 Mini Es that will be leased to American customers. It’s a normal Mini but with an electric engine up front and a lithium ion battery where you would usually find the back seat. BMW says it is step ...

Mini 4x4 crossover (2010): new spy photos

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Tim Pollard, 28 October 2008 10:37

We can finally see the bodystyle of the new Mini crossover 4x4 in CAR’s latest spy photos. Our scoop pictures reveal the lift-up tailgate masquerading behind lookalike Clubman van doors; they are in fact a trompe l’oeil caused by dummy black tape splitting the Mini SUV’s bootlid. The new four-wheel drive Mini will be launched in 2010 and will draw ...

Ranking: 23        Year of release: 2002. The car: Mini Cooper. Why it’s special: Cue the British national anthem – Bourne uses an original British Mini to escape the French police.

Mini - The Italian Job (1969)

Rated 3 out of 53

Tim Pollard, 20 October 2008 14:21

Ranking: 3        Year of release: 1969 The car: Mini Cooper S Why it’s special: It’s the best loved screen moment for the original Issigonis Mini. And films don’t come with better – or more literal – cliff-hangers… Best bit: All of it, basically. The Italian Job has one of the epic car chases in British cinema history. It’s hard to ...

Mini E electric car(2008): first photos

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 20 October 2008 09:36

The Mini has finally gone electric. As scooped by CAR Online, the Mini E is a pure electric car and just 500 will be built for corporate and private customers in the US, although a handful could make it to London where there is also a limited recharging infrastructure. The Mini E will only be available for one year as ...

Mini Crossover at the Paris motor show 2008

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 02 October 2008 15:46

We’ve already seen it in the November 2008 issue of CAR, but Paris marked the motor show debut of the Mini Crossover Concept – a pumped-up four-wheel drive Mini that goes on sale in 2009. As journalists crammed together in what looked like a trendy nightclub, a video of two Chemical Brother-style hipsters driving the Crossover through a warehouse played ...

Mini goes electric! Spy photos of battery-powered Mini (2012)

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Whitworth, 18 September 2008 07:30

These are CAR's first spy pictures of the electric Mini – the miserly mini that will help BMW meet tough new American regulations requiring car makers selling vehicles in California also to offer zero-emission vehicles by 2012. Our scoop photographer snapped the Mini out testing on the roads around Munich. And it wasn’t difficult for our man to spot the ...
