I read somewhere the door handle is made this way is actually to force the passenger to use the left hand to open when sitting at the right side.... this will naturally make the head do a blind spot check..... 😅😅

The air-con is not cold because by default, BMW sets the air-con setting to USA region (by default) which has 4 seasons, so if you software code the air-con to "rest of the world" setting, the air-con will be much cooler. I don't think warranty will void, it's just a simple toggle of settings using the right software available out there. Jon seems a little stiff, don't worry, watch a few car reviews like Carwow, to get a few tips on car review in an informative yet fun casual way. Looking forward to see Jon presenting to get more variety in presenters.

Maybe you guys can drive the car a bit more aggressively around bends along South Buona Vista Rd to showcase the handling and drivetrain. Just a suggestion so that viewers are more entertained instead of just listening to the commentary. Cheers

Guys, a very well done review by our local. I have watched review from Carwow, Carbuyer , buycartv n etc, i have to admitted to say that we are proud to have u guys to done on car review which is meant for our Singapore context as different countries have different specs for the cars which the agents will bring in. I would like to have more Review on some PI Cars which the local agents will not bring in. And also review on Seat Cupra Leon n Cupra Ateca

3:56 The interior door handles are designed that way on purpose- it’s made to encourage passengers/ especially the driver to use the other hand to open (which forces the body to turn) so they can look for oncoming traffic before opening the door. Please do your research before making bold claims like that 😂

Have sat in this car (friend of mine) a couple of years back; no doubt it’s indeed feistier, faster and more fun than other compact cars but its small boot space as well as the annoying “tick tock” sound made when signalling don’t really appeal to me. All in all, it’s an awesome review! Two thumbs up for the wonderful hosts! 👍🏻👍🏻

It's a Will Buy personally Jon and James. If you have that nostalgic feeling and the same time, focus more on technology, this will be on the list. Fun car ever? Personally, yes. Job well done. 5 stars. 2 thumbs up to the both of ya.

That was a great review very detailed very helpful I'm looking at one now and I'm trying to decide if I want to get a John Cooper Works or just the s I don't have much choice they're hard to come by. I believe the air can be fixed quite simply by going to the dealer and telling him to fix it and the door handles I'm curious when I go sit in the car hopefully soon I'll try using my left hand in the door handles and see if that how awkward that is it seems kind of strange that they did that without a real reason behind it. You also should have mentioned the back seat also has an extra stand to hold the back seat upright so that you get more Luggage in it least I believe that has it in. Great review though.

First time in a modern generation MINI? Its only taken you about 20yrs to do that. 😉 I think you've also mistakenly listed it as a 7spd Steptronic initially but later corrected to say it's a DCT

There are tons of KZbin channels that do car reviews but how come some channels get millions of subscribers and some don't? It all about the person's personality. Julian got a personality of a rock.
