Smallish seats made the front feel kinda cheap. The middle armrest was also a very hard plastic, but the door was slightly softer plastic. see full Mini Hardtop review |

Despite being a hatchback, not a lot of headroom in the back, almost as same as the Mustang. Seats were more upright and headrest should have been integrated into seatbacks; rather, it was mostly a nuisance. see full Mini Hardtop review |

I drove a John Cooperworks MINI and I found the front seat to be incredibly flat and unsupportive. It was the complete opposite of the GTI seats, and a big part of why I purchased the GTI instead see full Mini Hardtop review |

The roof line is so low that tall people do not fit. When I tested the car my head was touching the roofliner. see full Mini Hardtop review |

My 2009 JCW has more horsepower then I will probably ever use along with the Germen made Getreg six speed manual transmission makes for a very fast powerful car. The handling is a match for any car out there. It is a true "SPORTS CAR" in every way. see full Mini Hardtop review |

The clutch is the weak link. With a stronger clutch the 0-60 time would even improve. see full Mini Hardtop review |
