Im going to test drive one of the new 1499 GT MINIs tomorrow..... https://www.mini.co....ni-1499-gt.html

Any opinions? Any experience of the 1.5 3 cylinder engine?

Im really rather tempted.. but not the white option 🤢

Decent looking car if you can get over the advertising flannel.

 

This limited edition MINI is set to be a future classic.

Yep, just maybe it could be in 50 years time, and theres any oil left!

As above. Don't be fooled by the advertising. This is just a MINI with a smaller engine (1.2 I think) instead of a de-tuned 1.5l and a few stickers

Test drive the regular mini with the same engine. Its gutless.

Sorry. I had it round the wrong way. They have dropped the 1.2 in favour of a de-tuned 1.5. Still only has 102bph though
