Cooper S. John Cooper Works* THE MINI 3-DOOR AND MINI 5-DOOR HATCH. For over 55 years, the MINI has made the revolutionary routine. It’s broken all the old rules and set new standards. It’s taken inner-city driving and personalisation to the next level. And it’s always packed with inspirational technology. Its unmistakeable design and iconic go-kart feeling are practically the only traditions it won’t break with. But that’s because the best ones always endure. Old or new, past or present, the MINI has always been more than a car – it’s a statement as well. MAKING A HABIT OF BREAKING WITH CONVENTION. Details of fuel consumption and CO2 emissions for all models can be found in the Technical data section on page 46. For more information on the options available for each model, contact your MINI Retailer or visit mini.co.uk/configurator Motorsport legend John Cooper saw star racing potential in the original Mini – so he created a model for the track. Braking, inducing oversteer and then drifting around corners became effortless for rally drivers, thanks to its light weight and short overhangs. Racing around tight bends at high speed, now synonymous with the classic MINI go-kart feeling, laid the foundation for a succession of spectacular wins at the Monte Carlo rally. Here, the Mini proved that agile handling beats sheer power, every time. To honour Cooper’s vision, the thoroughbreds of the MINI range bear the name John Cooper Works. The compact design of Alec Issigonis and racing pedigree of John Cooper have defined the Mini from the very beginning and remain hallmarks of every iteration to this day. Their legacy of innovation lives on in the latest MINI – and the cutting-edge technology within. BREAKING THE MOULD IS A TRADITION FOR THE MINI. When Sir Alec Issigonis sketched his initial idea for the Mini on a tablecloth in 1956, his innovative compact design was the perfect response to some of the biggest automotive questions of his era. Almost everything about it was unconventional: he increased the track width as far as he could, mounted the engine transversely, and positioned the instrument cluster centrally for both left and right-hand drive. This ensured maximum space inside the car. The concept was unprecedented – and his revolutionary Mini soon became an icon. 4 MINI HERITAGE 5 With a streamlined front end and muscular sides, the classic Mini profile is unmistakeable. Once you’ve caught the eye of those around you, the side scuttles, the optional roof and exterior mirror caps in Aspen White and elongated roof line with spoiler lip are sure to hold their gaze as you drive away. Which model do you want? How many doors? What should it AN EXCEPTIONAL MINI look like inside? And what cutting-edge bag of tricks should it have up its sleeve? With MINI, the possibilities are endless. Two extra doors open up WITH EQUIPMENT Take the 5-door MINI Cooper in Moonwalk Grey shown untold opportunities, and above, for example. It sports bonnet stripes, roof and exterior you still get all of the classic TO MATCH. mirror caps in Jet Black, LED headlights and fog lights, white Mini go-kart feeling thanks direction indicators and 17" Roulette Spoke light alloy wheels to a low centre of gravity, in 2-tone.

THERE’S MORE THAN ONE WAY TO DRIVE A MINI. There’s also more than one MINI to drive away. Whether you go for the One/D, Cooper/D or Cooper S/SD, each one has a different engine and its own feel behind the wheel. But whichever model you choose, they all have one thing in common: the power and efficiency of MINI Twin Power Turbo technology. All models are fitted with a 6-speed manual gearbox as standard, except the Cooper SD variants which are only available with 8-speed automatic transmission. A 6-speed Steptronic automatic transmission is available upon request for Cooper models, a 7-speed double clutch transmission is optionally available for One and Cooper D models, whilst a Steptronic sport gearbox with automatic start/stop function and steering wheel paddles is also optionally available for Cooper S and John Cooper Works models (6-speed automatic transmission for Cooper S models and 8-speed automatic transmission for John Cooper Works models). To find out more about the John Cooper Works model, please see the John Cooper Works brochure or visit mini.co.uk With optional MINI Driving Modes, you can adapt the performance of your MINI to match your mood and the driving conditions. In the MID and GREEN modes, optional Variable Damper Control adjusts the suspension to keep the drive enjoyably smooth.
