This fourth generation re-design of this MINI hatch saw the car grow up a little and face its responsibilities - as all of us have to. Yet at the same time, the brand was keen that this car shouldn't lose its fun and 'joie de vivre', the very attributes that make most customers want to consider one in the first place. The updates we've been reviewing here are mostly aimed at making sure that doesn't happen, this Hatch version being now smarter, better connected and more sophisticated than before.
Of course, not everyone is MINI-minded. Some don't like the way the looks have evolved. Others still think it isn't big enough. And this car can certainly be expensive once you've added in a few essential options. But these are things the creators of this fourth generation version never set out to change. The improvements they have made though, are resoundingly successful. Though the endearing raw edges that characterised older versions of this car may now be distant memories, added maturity brings many compensations.
Which leaves us with a British-built benchmark in the premium small car segment and a model that, though easy to imitate, is now even more difficult to beat. Some rivals might be arguably more stylish or slightly larger but still none can beat its fun factor and everyday running cost affordability, both still crucial considerations in buying a car of this kind. Back in 1956 when he created the British original, Sir Alec Issigonis knew that. We think he'd have been pleased at how his creation's turned out.
