Mini Cooper






Released in 1959, the original Mini, for 41 years, has sold 5.3 million units. Terminate all of the park; a series of stretching from New York to Singapore you have to tinkle. These figures are as impressive as the original mini (Morris mini minor and Austin seven, the first) of the importance of the whole story, they're not. Gutenberg of the printing press according to the number of Sold much would you decide? Consider this: in 20 years 5.4 million Chevrolet Cavaliers sold. Cavalieri consider standing unchanged for 40 years. Imagine Cavalier clubs, Cavalier, from Cavalier to compete in a short skirt named. Cavalieri consider the designer of Queen fame. Therefore, has a long cultural history of mini. But in England, a proud country, abnormally with the past, modernity must give way to the symbols of a once glorious Empire.
The British dedication, a car that's mechanically old 20 years ago, the Mini was kept alive. But at the beginning of the 80s, each year, Minis showroom, only 5000 was walking outside. Therefore, as a symbol of the commitment to continue to be strong britishness the mini, although the mini's commitment to the car, went for a long time.

Two feet longer than the classic mini, the new model has a luxury interior, unlike the original belt jam.

2002 Mini Cooper all the style tips, take a look and listen until 1959. Evokes images of swinging London in the 60s and winning the Monte Carlo rally. However, the large, round headlights, Chrome grille, contrast roof and Mini Cooper and see beyond the color characteristic at the top of the drivetrain as it is in the layout name and you will see a modern BMW. New Mini vehicle with the last owner of the rover began as a joint project between their existing parents. Eventually the Germans took over and descended half a mile to the base of the jobs. Gone, the original is the lighter of the character took the place of the hustle and bustle, where we German craftsmanship that is synonymous with strong, capable she felt.



BMW, mini 1.5 times to 3.0 times as hard and 3 The structure of Cars, indexed from its competitors than 50% are hard says. From this perspective, the small size of the mini helps, but the structure 3800 resources (larger 3 series only 800 more) is engaged. BMW this solid structure, much more sophisticated than in most cars, sprayed with a suspension. Multipolar mimic the layout of the current 3 Series rear suspension. Simpler, cheaper rear suspension he would be more space saving, but this is a fun car, and BMW made some sacrifices in order to fulfill this task. Using the basis of the facade. Our test car was equipped with the sport suspension (standard for the installation than solid but not "Sport suspension settings Plus" is softer than that). We put the car in a tight central Italy, was even forced their way in when twisted, sport-tuned suspension, almost no body does not return. Looks like the mini's center of gravity a foot down the sidewalk.

Standard 15-inch wheels and Pirelli performance tyres of 175/65 front end grip even with modest is not surprising. Not unless it is twisted into a stupid corner, Mini, forced refused. Some unexpected decreasing radius turns, the steering was tight and the front car line called even more. It's nice. The steering, too, is definitely a front-lovely to drive. Feeling abundant, torque, direction and impressive accuracy. Cracked and sokullu until we find our way we'll make a judgment about the journey of a MINI Cooper. The sport suspension with the little ' un is plenty stiff, and we can say that they were subject to the short wheelbase. As hard as the new Mini never it doesn't feel raw. This is a luxury small car. Very little engine vibration can be felt in steering wheel or pedals. High-speed stability is excellent, but there is more road noise than they were on other BMWs.

Interior design, luxury is most evident where the nature of the mini. That looks simple and functional style. Unlike the original, this austerity, is not the product of design, it is not a necessity. Disabling the traction control or remove optional Windows keys for a practical reason, there should be a spring loaded transition. However, they look great and they're happy to work. The classical style at the wedding of the giant accelerometer, is located in the middle of the line. For long drives at the front, head and leg room. The rear is another story.


Describes him as a four-man BMW, but the rear seat for masochists emergency zones. When you set the front seat for a driver six feet tall between the front and rear seats couldn't be enough to stay of the foot. Rear seat, good cargo space folded up to provide. The list of options is long. Heated Leather Seats, navigation system, Xenon headlights, stability control, and continues. Standard equipment includes Power Windows, CD player, Air Conditioning, six airbags and anti-Lock Brakes. The problem is, it will give the weight of the beautiful. Three-door from a Ford Focus but only 200 pounds lighter, which is 24.2 inches shorter than the mini, does not have a little more weight 2300 pounds, and excess weight, 114-horsepower single-cam is the last thing that you can manipulate the fourth. (This is for the European mini horsepower; it has not yet been announced for the US versions.)


The engine has 163 BHP Super-charged version of the Mini Cooper S to drive, which wasn't ready, but next year also will be sold in the United States. 114 which is the product of a joint venture between BMW and Chrysler-hp, 1,6-litre base station in the Pentagon "as" extraordinary, known as the weakest link in the mini. The base of the BMW engine, It will produce approximately nine seconds 0 to 60 time, and this sport with the intentions of other small cars that it will put to the back of estimates. Weak low end and maximum torque of 110 pound-feet to 4500 rpm does not reach. Five-speed manual is standard. Variable-diameter pulleys with a metal belt that runs between a CVT that uses an option, but a preview was not available. Five-speed derailleur in good mechanical sense, though the second and third gear ratios is very far. To hit the rev limiter in second, and the third at the corner we got rid of. The Cooper S will come with six gears.




Cooper and Cooper S, the next 70 will be available at the BMW dealership in the month of March. For the treatment of approximately 17,000 S $ and maybe $ 3000 for a price of wait. This is the VW Golf and New Beetle, Ford SVT focus and Honda Civic si is expected to compete with. However weak, however, and BMW's badge to wear's the fun of driving enough high-quality, feels a little nostalgic for a car that is not established yet from the perspective of Sunday's cute, but it's not. The old update as the new Mini instead of thinking it fun, nostalgia and style we need to think of nonsense as the first BMW driven.
