Paul Horrell had the opportunity to go to Puerto Rico, drive the 2014 MINI Cooper and write about it for United Kingdom's
Top Gear. Horrell opines in part:
Sure, in character, things haven't changed. There's measurable progress. It's efficient - for the petrol Cooper, 105g/km. Plus it's more refined and better-riding and safer and has a bigger boot. OK, that's all rational stuff that Top Gear is reputed not to give a stuff about. Yet they did that while preserving the stuff we do care for. It's more lively, it sounds more interesting and the handling's more fun and visceral.
