Where's the Not Like button.

I walk past a so called Mini on my dog walk that is about as much of a Mini as my ****, The thing looks jacked up & Massive to me, Others I've seen don't look as bad but this one i see is Hideous.

I agree with you! I quite like it, it is definitely growing on me

I'd like to see one in all black

I wouldn't buy one but it's certainly not as offensive as some of the new cars out there!

quite like it in a "not bad if you're a short arse" kind of way

Don't mind the style and design but not sure what the point of it is. It's not that much different to a normal mini is it?

I just don't get it... Is it a 2+2 mini sports coupe... thing? Is that a little "pop up" spoiler on the back? Why did they give it an arse like a cliff face?

They don't seemed to have done anything below the wing mirrors. They've just stuck a TT roof on a standard mini body. Personally I think it's ridiculous, especially the back end. Hideous.

MINIs have somewhat precipitous backsides anyway - that roof just exacerbates it.

Nobody should be surprised at an offering from a company that released the 5 series GT.
