Mini 3dr 1.5 Cooper Exclusive II 5dr Auto Review
Category: Small car
Section: Version review

The model
Read full reviewThe Mini 3dr is a hugely desirable small car that has plenty of substance to match its style. We’d recommend a peppy yet frugal Cooper in Exclusive trim to make the most of the Mini’s biggest strength, its well appointed interior. If practicality is high on your shortlist, we’d point you in the direction of the even more impressive Audi A1, though.
get the best priceThe trim
See full equipmentThis luxury oriented trim adds 17in alloy wheels with a diamond cut finish, extra chrome accents inside and out, a Mini Yours leather steering wheel, leather sports seats and cruise control.
The engine
See full engine specsThe Cooper's engine is smooth, exceptionally quiet and, with maximum torque – or pulling power – available from just 1250rpm, makes it very easy to maintain swift, relaxed progress.
