Is it me (I'm getting old) or does this presenter have a lot of the Quentin Wilson about him? So much so that I thought this was an impersonation video. The voice is uncanny. The way in which the sentences are delivered are of mimicking quality. I enjoy the video. For the wrong reasons perhaps. Am I the only one watching this with the nostalgic thought of Quentin Wilson on Top gear in the mid 90's? I'm showing my age but my word the similarities are present.

When he said Minis have ALWAYS been great, i cringed.
Guess he has never had to deal with a long term r56s then.
Thermostat failures, timing chain guide failures, high pressure fuel pump failures, valves that need to be walnut blasted, leaky oil filter housings, expansion tank failures, leaks oil, leaks coolant, yup those motors are great.
I have spent more money keeping my S on the road, than i paid for it

Nice video, and thank you for making it. Being an American, and living in the USA I'm left a little confused by something I suppose is rather trivial. That being, during the video you mentioned the -UK-, as well the engine choices stated were those of the UK, and the description in the copy below the video states -UK- a couple of times. My confusion is why the test vehicle is Left Hand Drive. ?

people can't seem to understand that mini is a brand and not the size of the car. The very first Minis were small but nobody would buy something that small now, they have to be practical. Still a small car compared to others although the supercharged R53 mini was the best and looked better.

Nowadays if someone sees a Union Flag (yes it's called that LOOK IT UP) they instantly scream running round like headless chickens, ohh no BREXIT! If we can't hold our OWN FLAG high what can we hold high?

BTW I liked Quentin Wilson, so a presenter that able to do a banging impression of him is fine by me. The impression is top notch! As is the nostalgic value. Well done.

Not really a review though is it? Just blurb about the car. I have the new Cooper S but if I saw this review first I may not have got it.

I am interested in a Mini however the new ones are no longer -mini-. I think after 2013 they started making the models bigger

Do they do one with the EU flag in the tail lights? I would feel ashamed driving round repping the union jack after Brexit.
