Car Enthusiast: MINI John Cooper Works Convertible

Open for Works
BMW's latest MINI receives the roof removal treatment and a rather serious shot in the arm courtesy of the John Cooper Works package.

The John Cooper Works (JCW) model brings with it a more aggressive stance courtesy of the front spoilers and grille, side skirts, alloys and big bore exhaust, but other details marking out the new Convertible as just that are limited to things like the removal of the retro hinges on the boot lid. Options to personalise the MINI are as broad as ever thanks to the colours and patterns on offer.

MINI's interior is beginning to feel a little dated now and gimmicks like the G-Meter on the dash don't remedy that situation. The fit and quality are still first rate and touches like the roof mounted toggle switches and mood lighting remain favourites, but the grey and silver plastics are beginning to look aged and distinctly at odds with a price ticket pushing £25k.

This is probably a great car. No doubt, but there is no way I would take a ragtop over a hardtop.
