2015 MINI One D well impressed!
Discussion
Just purchased a basic 2015 Mini One diesel. Got to say what an impressive little motor it is! First 20 mile run and the trip is telling me it's averaging 62 MPG, a way off of the book figures, but aren't they all! I guess this will improve with mileage.
The engine is very cool, pulling like a train from low revs! Seems happy changing up at around 2500 rpm. The only criticism I have so far is the low gear spacing, first is indeed very low! I guess this is done to exploit the engines torquey nature. i.e. Once you're moving you only ever need second gear.
Think this is going to be a fun car to own, no road tax either!
