Just bought one, JCW with all the bells and whistles, I love it, particularly parking assist. Very smooth engine, very quiet. Big difference after my old X3. It is just size for me. I hope it will last long time with proper maintenance

- I'm guessing Motorpoint doesn't find Karmon Hardon to be appropriate for it's viewers😂
A Geordie bloke used to call these gopping things fatty hatchbacks, but again the grown ups in the room put paid to that little gem.
Have a great week Tim!
-Yeah but, the current iterations of 'Mini' have all rather lost the point and are chubby and generally bloated in pursuit of premium = over priced. It's not a 'looker' either although the brown interior on this one works well. You said that this second hand one is £31,000 and there are quite a few brand new cars around that price point including although, not for Trendy Wendy’s the Honda Jazz which is highly practical and probably a similar size, makes you think :)
- The interior plastics are really cheap. The plastic just above the windshield is awful. The previous generation was much more better in terms of quality
- I'm sorry just not a Mini and having seen these on the road they look hideous! Who thought that looked good! It's an uglier version of the BMW X1 which isn't exactly a looker itself! Wouldn't have one of these or an X1 about me.
- Thank you for this clarification!
I had the MINI Countryman model in 2017 when it first came out. Great car but poor MINI dealer, which has now gone!
It was a fun car to drive but the novelty soon wore off. I have had Volvos since then. Now driving an EX30.
- It is a MINI. Just look at the brand and they look beautiful. Much more nice looking than the previous gen with the very ugly front lights. Maybe you should book a time at the closest optician so you see it better.
-I think it's you that needs your eyesight tested if you think that's a great looking car! It's a even uglier 1 series and it's no looker in a horrible dress! Wise up! Proper minis stopped being made in the early 90s. It's now all BMW rubbish.
- Not it werent. Before I bought my U25 from 2025 I testdrove a F60 from 2023. It felt like going in to a car from 2013. Felt very outdated in many ways and didnt felt like an modern car. Very tiny screen. The leather seats felt outdated. The U25 feels like a modern car from 2020's should feel.
- As an American JCW Mini owner this was painful to watch. The presentation was weak and very confusing with all the EU differences.
I've got a question about the roof window which is one of the best features of any Mini. Video completely skipped any roof description . Except for the add on roof tent.
Call me a very satisfied spoiled older JCW owner.
But, I am not sold on upgrading with this weak presentation.
However, the rugged Untamed is a welcome idea. Actually living in the mountains of California I pushed my manual JCW hard and it always did well and a excellent sports car driver on mountain windy roads.
