It will depend on what you mean by best. The MINI comes in many flavours. the MINI one, the D, Cooper, Cooper S, and finally the JCW. Also available in coupe or convertible form.

If you are looking to buy a MINI, take a good hard look at your needs. Like most things in life, there are trade-offs. If itès performance youère looking for with little regard for fuel mileage or the overall cost of the car, then JCW. For outright economy with a decent dose of affordability and the MINI handling, then the MINI One will suffice. Also note the cost of the car varies from quite affordable to beyond what most people will spend on a car.

So decide on what your needs on, and then you can decide on whatès best for you.

Good luck!

Can I suggest a visit to your local dealer? The best MINI Cooper S model I have is the JCW Cooper S I bought from my local dealer - I forget the make though....

AutoArt in my view is the best, I have an AutoArt and Kyosho models (best 2 makes IMO) which are both 1/18th.

Kyosho one is in fact the offical MINI JCW model with Aero kit etc, but AutoArt one is still better as everything looks much more to scale.

Yeah I think Autoart looks the best.
