Overview
Few cars are as well suited to urban life as the MINI. Its retro looks have proved to be more than just a passing fashion fad, it’s compact, easy – as well as exciting – to drive and affordable to run. And that’s why you’ll see one on nearly every street in the country. Such is MINI’s appeal that even early – and tatty – examples fetch surprisingly high prices, although those with choice options fetch the best money.
