Deon Schoeman reviews the new 2014 MINI Cooper Hardtop and concludes:
The new Mini – and the Cooper, in particular – is special, not because of its engineering, its performance, its handling or its advanced connectivity features. It’s special because it has heritage, personality and charisma – traits often lacking in modern motor cars.
The Cooper isn’t as fast as the S, let alone the JCW, but in many ways, it represents the purer, more honest expression of the Mini ethos. And that means it’s a cracking car to drive, too!
