New Mini is almost Corrado sized

Recommended Posts

I was reading the dimensions of the new Mk3 Mini today. Length 3,821mm, width 1,727mm, height 1,414mm. Corrado measures length 4,048mm, width 1,674mm, height 1,318mm. More maxi than mini me-thinks!

They're pretty good fun - my sister has an 03 reg (so first generation new shape) and it's quite a good drive. Turn in is incredible - it makes my Corrado feel like a wobbly old trifle compared to the Mini! But the trade off is ridiculously hard / crashy suspension and not a very nice place to spend long periods of time!

I worked for MINI for a few years and went from a hater to lover.. They're great cars. Roomy enough for a couple, quick, handle well.. not a lot more you can ask for. Suspension can be crashy but coming from coilovers it's rather pleasant!
