The MINI, which started as a concept was more focused on the utility and practicality of a small car packing in the most space possible with the handling of a Go-Kart. Interesting as it sounds as a cost effective budget car need not be a track performer at all but then thanks to a certain John Cooper, the famous race car builder , who was part of this project since its inception.
The Cooper series have evolved a long way from the time it was first introduced. They aren’t any MINIer
but then have got a lot meaner and aggressive in design instead
without losing on the core essence and value MINIs are known for.

in India recently, it has caught the attention of many. When we were

over the other petite variants to get a big bite of the premium so
called SUV, is it really an “Adventurous” way of spending a premium
amount?Specification
