Mini Paceman Cooper S (2013) CAR review

Mini Paceman Cooper S (2013) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ollie Kew, 09 May 2013 10:00

The Mini Paceman is the eighth (count ‘em) model to join the Mini range, and it’s easily the hardest to pigeonhole. As a three-door version of the Countryman SUV, it’s a sort-of, retro-styled, cut-price Range Rover Evoque coupe. Does it make any more sense from behind the wheel? We drove the 184bhp Cooper S model to discover if the Paceman ...

Mini Coupe Cooper SD (2012) long-term test review

Parting with the Mini Coupe isn't such a sorrow after all - 26 December 2012 So after 23,598 miles, the Mini has gone. Like a gauche but nonetheless entertaining houseguest on the verge of outstaying his welcome, the red-and-black-striped eyesore is no longer part of my daily routine. In many ways I’m glad the good people at Mini came and ...

For a car THAT is so obviously very different to the original 1959 Mini, BMW's new-millennium replacement successfully transfers much of its predecessor's feel into an all-new car: the go-kart handling, the eager steering, the perky performance, even the clear view through the upright windscreen and upright A-pillars lend a sense of déjà vu. It's not as practical as our ...

Mini Roadster Cooper S (2012) CAR review

This is the new Mini Roadster, and it’s the penultimate Mini model (the Countryman-based Paceman arrives in 2013) before a whole new range of baby Brits start to appear in 2014. The Roadster is a mix of what we already know, combining the more rakish windscreen of 2011’s controversial Coupe with the drop-top body of the Convertible. Is it any ...

Mini Countryman Cooper D All4 (2011) long-term test review

Goodbye - 15 December 2011 The Countryman is gone but not forgotten and, whilst I’m not left pining for the little rhino, I may have developed something of a softspot for it. I’m left with mainly memories of the positive attributes of this strange mutant Mini. The interior was always a delight, with the cream leather and headlining making the ...

Mini Coupe JCW (2011) CAR review

Mini-logoed London buses, references to go kart-like handling, and a load of old nonsense about adventure. Yes, we’re here again with another Mini and all the usual brand messages are being poured out by the bucketload. This rather camp caravan of pastiche follows the brand wherever it goes and in the Countryman and Clubman, perhaps the buzz fell a little ...

Mini First (2009) hatchback CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Barry, 10 August 2009 14:15

Hip, urban young things take the fun Fiat 500 very seriously, and now, it seems, so does Mini – with the launch of the new entry-level First, the company is targeting the slinky Italian directly. Where does this new Mini One slot into the range? The First usurps the Mini One’s entry-level slot, undercutting that car’s £12,345 price tag by almost £1500. At £10,950, it ...

Mini Convertible Cooper S (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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

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

Rated 4 out of 54

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 ...
