New Mini Cooper five-door review, test drive

The new Mini will come to India sometime in November this year, along with the three door, giving potential Mini buyers the choice between a bit impractical and loads of fun, and practical but slightly less fun. If you like what the new Mini has to offer, and need the extra space and better access to the rear seats, this is the car for you. It may not look quite as chunky or as compact as the three-door, and it may not be nearly as agile, but if buying the five-door allows you to cheat a bit and buy into your dream, go for it. If, however, you can choose between the two and are confused, stick with the three-door. It’s a bit nicer to look at, a bit nicer to drive and a bit more Mini too.
