Really, really don't approve of the move away from the curved rear windows and the stick on piece of plastic trim that's taken its place.
Really, really don't like the fattening of the car's rear that makes it look more like a last generation Clio. This is not a good thing, as even Renault worked out that there must be something very wrong with their design department and imported help for the current generation of Clio.
Really, really don't like the increased front overhang; a tiny front overhang is a
very rare thing in a front wheel drive car.
Really, really don't like the near loss of the headlamps cowls in the bonnet pressing that reminded me so much of being in my mum's old Morris 1300!
AND they STILL haven't fitted LED tail lights. What a wasted opportunity
Overall a fairly predictable update, in a next generation Golf / 911 sort of a way. However, it moves the style
slightly further away from being uniquely MINI and
slightly further towards being just like any other FWD supermini
Tigger.
