Coupe loved by Vicki BH on Fifth Gear

[dandarez]

I was expecting the usual slating for this brilliant car (you need to drive a JCW to realise how good it is!).
But no, VB-H gave the first-ever non-slagging off I have seen of any car test.
She wouldn't change anything (perhaps the steering she said - she couldn't have pressed the Sport button!), she even liked the cap, helmet or what you like to call it.

If you missed it, take a look.

MINI Coupe

I agree with the VB-H sicki, not the Coupe JCW though, you need to drive one - it's a f.....g hoot, much better than my hatch JCW!

Who the f. cares what it looks like, when someone laughs all they see is you leave them in the dust. ie he who laughs last, laughs loudest.

I agree, I think with time people will get used to the looks. Most recent BMW design are always hated when they first come out.

Even though my mate hated the look, while his car was at mini being serviced, he took one out for a demo drive.He came back still not quite seeing the point of it and said if he wanted to change his car for another mini brand, wont be the coupe, even if there is only him and his girlfriend to transport around.

It may very well be a really good car to drive but i just don't like it's looks at all much better looking cars out there with the same or better performance and more usable.

Oh, I obviously misread the first word in the title.

Very concerned I had missed some unusual TV.
