Had one of the first generation Cooper S from BMW, what a great car it was. But damn, "what have they done to my boy?!" sorry guys but IMO each iteration is just simply uglier and more plasticky. Mini Cooper R53 GP was peak design and they should've only improved from there.

The audio is clipping so bad

Best looking MINI since 2001...

It’s A great mini and great video well done

the old Porsche headlights ... look likes .. :)

Agree on Chili Red! That, or the Ocean Wave Green on the base Cooper model are my favourites. I saw the Ocean Wave Green in person at the Mini Dealership and it’s stunning.

Great review! I just got my first car, a 2017 F56 Cooper. Would love to get one of these one day 😍. Although this is probably the second to last (maybe even last!) ICE car Mini will ever sell (at least here in the UK), as new ICE cars can no longer be sold from 2035 😔

LOL! You said check the suspension and bushings...I've had nothing but problems with my suspension since new!

I am glad you are liked it because I loved it and ordered one (few months ago) Cooper C in JCW trim (BRG/W) and in a few days will arrive in my country. I think it has everything I wanted and more. I believe that will be a very good replacement for my 22 years daily drive R53. A brilliant successor in all fields. After 30+ year of manual driving I wanted a good auto and this DCT is way too good! Keep up with the videos and thank you!

I just got my engine mount replaced at 95,000 miles! $1,999.99

Aaay yupp Stu baby!

I thought these cars were a nightmare so many horror stories

I ordered the cooper S sport but was disappointed I couldn’t get runflat tyres 🛞

Is there no longer a manual shift in the F66? 😮

The design is very Mini. Love it. But the countryman …men, what an ugly Kia. I saw the Countryman in person and had to run to the hospital. I almost had an heart attack due to the countryman ugliness.

Great review thanks. I’m interested in taking one for a test drive. How will it stack up against my Mustang?! A very different car, I’m especially interested in how it corners and also if the auto engine off feature can be disabled. Can you customise so that when you get in it’s always in go kart mode? That looks the most fun mode.

I like it, but you can now build the base Cooper at MINI USA, and the only difference is it's missing the S that I can see. If I was buying a 2025 I would buy the base with its 2.0l 4-turbo with 161hp. It's plenty fast enough for me, and about $4,000 cheaper than a similarly equipped S.

Has Mini released any info on how to keep that fabric like material clean? We just got our 2025 2 Door Cooper S a few weeks ago. Beautiful Car. Ocean Wave with a Black Roof, Classic Trim. One thing that surprised me is that even in the Classic Trim, you still get a lot of tech.

I thought my 2024 F60 countryman S 14K miles very reliable no trouble whatsoever but only issue rear brake pad eats away faster 12K miles too early Dealer did changed brake pad I doing the break in new Pads first 300 miles no harsh driving Only funny thing Nissan dealer told me I need service my 21 Rouge which was loss in collision I asked them if they can put that car out of service date Which will end warranty or service

No thanks. R53 is heaps better.

Do you think these will be even more reliable than the F56's? I ask because I live so far from a dealer

no paddles?

Hard pass

F56 any day. I don't like the interior. They have taken away the retro look of the classic mini

The exterior is cool. The interior is so dull and blah. The glass plate video display on the center of the front package tray is a great distraction from attentive driving. Bmw has inspired me not to purchase a new Mini. I'll continue my Mini experience in my 2013 R58 Coupe. I'd rather add an R59 Roadster, instead of going to one of these.

It’s growing on me

Nice review!

Great video and interesting to hear your feedback. How is the steering compared to the F56? I've heard that it's lighter but more responsive. And overall, would you say that the driving experience is an improvement over the F56 S?

thanks for the review, I think they went just a little too far. I like the dash and the seats and the new vents, the grille and the tail lights i can live with. I dont like the decision to combine the infotainment and gauges in the center section even with it being larger. I much prefer my 2024 where the center is all carplay and the left is all gauges. I know there is a HUD and that helps but it doesn't replace the need for a gauge cluster. It just doesnt feel as "special" as older minis, they have always been unique and fun, this looks like they modeled it after a kia.

Beautiful car. They were built very solidly.

So there’s a difference between JCW SE and JCW E? Will the JCW E be top tier of the MINI JCW line?

Where are the batteries 🔋 made? 😎👍

Lol!! Bonnet!! Bro, you're not British....😂 Keep it USA... otherwise, good tips

Not one single spec fact about the car. Pointless

I dont understand the forcing of a blue interior and gold accents. Hate tacky gold and not a fan of blue. I cant paymoney for colors i dislike. They need to make black and silver and option for the inside.

Hopefully they did fix brake pad issue worn out too early 12K miles on F60 I thought supposed to last 30-40K miles

First

A week ago went to dealer to think about buy the new mini, when we go out of the demo didn't know if we like or not. It is not as convincent like the F56 experience... the definitive word for me was when we saw two cars in front of us and my wife said, look two new minis... when i started to see the details noticed that one of them was a SWIFT 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂, no way to change my F56 S 2024 all black version, for this SWIFT WANNABE. Maybe buy one thinking that im driving a feminine car.

What phone holder is that

Why is everything turbo nowadays? Turbo engines put more pressure inside the engine and if you drive them hard they will wear out sooner. I like this car, except for the honking front grill, but they should just put a conventional engine in it instead of the turbo

Thank you! I'm a new Mini fan 🚗 😊 Going for test drives on the '24 and '25 tomorrow. 👍

Good Word Good Man TY

Mini Coopers Win . Every single one on EARTH does Ah.

I like it 😊
