MINI charge a premium price in Europe and at least in Norway prices are no haggle just like BMW, what you pay is what's on the window sticker, no discounts, if you're lucky you might get free floor mats. |

As regards the size of the current product, an original Min was on the showroom floor at the dealership we visited. The current generation is a stretch limo by comparison. It's flat amazing how small the originals were, and a reminder of how relatively inexpensive they had to be in 'sixties Europe. Even the VW bug on the floor of our VW dealer looks relatively 'normal' compared to current vehicles.

They do pretty much look the same, so I would think that it's either both ugly or both good looking. I personally think they're both good looking. Could do with slightly smaller rear tail lights though.

As I said in the other thread, the problem is the height, the new Mini is too high, and the front overhang is too long and shows FWD layout, unlike the first one. New Mini is the same, but look puffy, that makes it ugly IMO.

I'd buy a John Coopers version for my wife (if I had one)
