The model
Read full Mini Cooper reviewThe new Mini Cooper has its charms, being thoroughly stylish, powerful and – for the most part – good to drive. It has its flaws, but the Cooper has always appealed more to the heart than the head. Our favourite variant is the entry-level Cooper C. Sure, the Cooper S’s engine may be that bit stronger and smoother, but the S is no more fun or engaging to drive, unfortunately. What’s more, the C’s unit remains a treat.
The trim
See full equipmentWorth considering if you want you Mini to look sporty. We reckon the Cooper SE is worth the extra over the Cooper E for its longer range and more generous roster of standard kit.
The engine
See full engine specsIf you can afford it, this Cooper SE version is worth the extra. It has a longer range than the entry-level Cooper E (officially up to 250 miles) and offers slightly faster acceleration.
