I rode in my first 'new' Mini this last week. It was my cousins wife's DD. Made a lousy impression.
It looks just fine and he says it goes great and gets good gas mileage.
I just couldn't get over how crappy it rode and how much the interior 'rattled' around. WTF? These are modern cars. I would expect them to be real tight.
Opening and closing the door felt awful. I just can't imagine how bad it will be in a few years when there's some mileage on it.
My Z with Swifts feels less 'rough' and stiff and is way more compliant over bumpy stuff. The Mini is a unrefined go kart in comparison.
