gulfnews.com Wheels column correspondent Dejan Jovanovic explains:
The Cooper S is like a suit that throws on a fedora and purple socks at night. Tomorrow morning, though, he’s still a suit, in a boardroom full of other grey suits and a pie chart on Powerpoint.
The three-cylinder Mini, on the other hand, ferries its owner to a co-op bakery specialising in gluten-free cupcakes. They’ve got a community wall with adverts for second-hand bicycles and harmonica players looking for band mates.
A Cooper S just runs that chicken over. A Cooper stops and chats, maybe plays a little tag with the dog.
