    MINI (Mk III - F55) 5-door 2014-

    #1 This, according to Mini, is its first hatchback with five doors.

    That statement might come as a surprise to those of you who’ve seen a Countryman.

    #2 The five-door is a 161 mm longer than three door version. Half of that has gone into the wheelbase and the rest goes behind the rear wheels.

    #3 Nevertheless, the tape measure shows that real supermins like Volkswagen Polo offer more rear accommodation than this five-door Mini.

    #5 All the powertrains and suspension settings are unchanged from three-door version. This means the ride remains as firm and noisy, with extra 60 kg to haul around.

    #6 Ridiculously, the 2.0 litre engine with a single turbocharger is marketed as "TwinPower Turbo".

    #7 This is how a base version looks, in a special color called Unterhosen Beige.

    Didn't Mini say they made too many Mini models?

    What the heck happened to that?
