Conclusion – After driving the MINI Cooper S, we can confidently say that there is no car that is as attractive. The MINI Cooper does have its drawbacks. Being a strict 2-seater, it is not as practical as other cars its price. The boot is small and there is no diesel engine on offer. However the MINI Cooper has far more positives which out weigh the small practicality issues. Factor in the splendid performance, excellent handling, retro interiors and head-turning looks and the Cooper S immediately captures your heart.
