Hello and welcome to Saabkyle04! KZbin's largest collection of automotive variety! In today's video, we'll take an up close and personal, in depth look at the all new 2014 Mini Cooper Hardtop
MSRP pricing for the Cooper, before options, begins at:
Cooper: $19,950
Cooper S: $23,600
During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth educational videos of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of KZbin!

Never thought I'd fall in love with the Mini. This 2014 revision looks fantastic!

[@LazyGamerNyx]

Wow the interior looks so awesome on the new mini!

[@saabkyle04]

It's a very nice interior!

My dad bought a 2017 Mini Cooper 3cyl Turbo. He said, it's so fun to drive. He hasn't been this enthusiastic about a car in many years.

[@DoSum4Me]

The 3 cylinder sounds incredible

[@pr1mefire]

Wow, that 3 cylinder sounds sweet! I would give anything to have a new Cooper.

[@gamerguy348]

For a 3 and 4 cylinder engine, these engines sound great.

[@wandering_armadillo]

Now this is what I call a review- one of the best out there! Great job - very fair and positive - and why not, the new Mini is a great update! Thanks for including the base Cooper in as well - should get a huge proportion of potential buyers with it's price tag and torque.

[@HW007]

Brilliant review. This is the only review I have come across which shows every minute detail of the fine points of the car. Fantastic. I have been going through so many Cooper reviews no other review comes close to this. A must see for any Cooper enthusiast. 5 stars all the way

[@mleap29]

I was reading through the comments and I just wanted to let you know how awesome it is thaat you reply to so many of them! You are such a enthusiastic person and it is fantastic that you have such good people skills as well! Been subscribed for 4 years now and I love your channel! Keep up the great work buddy! :)

[@miutzyh]

Never thought I would have a use for your review, but now I'm looking into a F56, this was the first one to really be helpful. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into your reviews.

[@DiDaTT]

This was such a good in depth review. I've been looking for reviews that actually show/talk about the passenger experience in the back.

[@alfredosteffen]

This is the most complete Mini review I've seen on KZbin. Thank you for all the details.

[@komit73]

I never considered this car until now, thank you Kyle.

[@BringItOnYFD]

I really liked how much effort you put in recording the engine and exhaust sound. It's really helpful for people who have a certain taste in car sounds. Thanks :)

[@marksapollo]

Blimey! That has to be the most in depth car review ever! Brilliant video, thank you very much for taking the time to make it. Lots of cool tech in the new Mini.

[@matthewh630]

My dad just traded in his 2 gen mini cooper s with 96000 miles ( no issues what ever) and just got his new Mini Cooper s today! With the new led's and volcanic orange with the black finish wheels(manual of course). I drove it eagerly today. It's fast nd lots of fun... I'm starting to think that its more fun than my bmw e46:( i want one lol

[@xIWRESTLEABEARONCEx]

I appreciate your hard work Kyle! Really enjoyed watching this

[@2fast2savage]

"I remember back in the day going out on Friday night" got that commercial stuck in my head lol

[@michaelpegasiou4531]

I’ve got a 2017 s and this is the best review I’ve seen,learnt about the glovebox vent !

[@mokeydluffy4366]

it convinced me to buy a cooper s model.. thank you saabkyle04 for making such an in-depth video..

[@pez300]

really like this car and really love your reviews. been watching your videos for a few years now and i can say that my car knowledge is based a lot on these videos. keep the content coming

[@buildmorefarms1007]

It's amazing how high quality the new cars are, what a huge improvement!

[@ThePinoyMamba]

The best person to review a full detail on any vehicles. Thanks

[@fabiojohn8950]

I really appreciate what you do and how you do it for all car addicted out there...........

[@ssonera88]

Excellent video, Kyle. Definitely one of your best reviews. My dealership just got in a brand new Mini Cooper S and I'm actually trying to get it.

[@dickdastardley4010]

Hey Kyle, pick up my Cooper S later this week. Your video was informative. I can't wait................. Thanks!!

[@stelimic]

Nice video`s you have, congretulation for your work. I like Mini very much.

[@theeeMitchi]

I like it how you, Kyle, have put both cars in one video to compare them instead of making two videos to get more money. Props to you, quality content as usual!

[@saabkyle04]

It's all about making a cool video :) Thanks man!

[@bachsi1]

These are great reviews, Kyle. They are unlike the ones from Autoguide or Kelley Blue Book, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. With your reviews, it feels more in depth and personal. Thanks again and keep it up!

[@saabkyle04]

Thank you very much for the feedback, I appreciate it! :)

[@AnonymoussourceL0L]

That's such a nice, musical chime out of the Mini :D The chime you get when you start it up, etc.

[@ThatTomApple]

Outstanding review. I appreciate the interior highlights, as Mini tends to have several.

[@AlecInstant]

Oh man, I can't wait to get my hands on one of them. Saving up will take a while but well worth the wait.

[@Toesucker242002]

Awesome video Kyle. Keep up the great work with your in depth videos

[@nathangill5985]

Love your videos! Thanks for reviewing the new mini!

[@rpnp2]

All of the reviews are really well done... good job

[@DGaines92]

Love your videos all ways use them when deciding on my next car

[@StabbedAX]

Thanks for doing this video Kyle! I was waiting for this car :)

[@kennedydwyer16]

Great review thank you so much. I can't wait to order mine!

[@brandonlbardsley]

I like how the Start/Stop function is de-activated as standard upon start-up, here in the UK we have to toggle it off if we don't want to use it.

[@Mojo_Mike]

Great, comprehensive overview of the R56!

[@carmichael327transportatio6]

These Video that you have Made have put a huge Smile on my face keep up the good work love the Mani Sweet TRUCK BY the Way!!

[@tomcat2512]

Great review! You almost covered everything about the car. Two thumbs up!

[@noelpowell7882]

You are the man I been waiting for this bro

[@SuperKnowitall123]

If you listen closely you can hear that the tone and way he says everything is always consistent with all his videos. It really shows how many times hes done it. :)

[@viperfan85]

orange paint and black stripes on the hood and looks perfect

[@alexslagle2544]

You have done it again Kyle. Another Mini Cooper. You must love mini coopers

[@saabkyle04]

I do very much! haha

[@AcRPAINTBALL]

Im in a crossroad, I dont know if i should wether take the most equipped 3 Cylinder or the basic Cooper S, the differences are the sunroof, leather seats and the mini driving modes, help!!

[@gdogunit12]

My mom just ordered one yesterday with the same color combinations!

[@viarsweson7413]

I LOVE the pop and burble exhaust on the 05'!! :)

[@JamesLStapleton]

Great in-depth review. Crazy long. I'm looking forward to the redesigned Mini Clubman, as well as that 5 door Cooper. I'll be looking to you as soon as those come out.

[@timwalker7192]

This is the most in depth review I've seen of anything, ever. The amount of work that must have gone into this... Impressive. I've had an R53 and an R56 and now I want a fully loaded one of these!

[@asuka1604]

Man. the new mini is so beautiful!! esp the interior!

[@TimeisReel]

Thanks Kyle, this helps in my search...

[@DJDnazz]

Now this is what I call an "In Depth Review" Liked\Subscribed.

[@FurbyFan-bx5bd]

I was trying to do an in depth tour of my grandma's Mini Cooper when suddenly I didn't know how to open the hood but then you showed me how to do it.

[@girydoank]

very good review. thanks a lot

[@kevinbenedek]

Rock solid video Kyle.

[@Mehterian45]

I absolutely love Mini, especially the S Hardtop. The only problem I had was that I noticed that pulsating starter button was straight up copied from Jaguar's XF.

[@rszymanskiRSB]

Just bought a new 2014 Cooper S a few weeks ago. Got the Volcanic Orange. This vehicle is just awesome and in "Sport Mode", it is over-the-top FUN! Previously, I have owned 4 BMW's and can really tell the Bavarian's input on the 2014 Coopers. There presence is quite welcome. I could never pull the trigger on the older models as I just couldn't get past that bulging center speedo. Not things are correct in the world ...

[@cobratuner]

Looking to buy a new car and wasnt considering the new Mini S until now. Thankssss haha. Awesome review.

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks buddy!!

[@djemit]

Great and thorough review! Keep up the outstanding work. You should work for one of the magazines.

[@geofo60]

Good review although at times it sounded like you were reading from the spec sheet. I've had four of the new MINIS and when young three original Minis. Just waiting for Cooper S (F56) to arrive mid July. Yes it's grown in size but BMW listened to their customers - unlike some manufacturers & personally I think they've got it spot on with this generation. There's no pleasing everyone but I'm delighted with the update & can't wait to get behind the wheel & drive the nuts off of it !!

[@user-qj6ch5bu9k]

I love Mini Cooper so much 😍

[@fransiscusrosano7691]

I really like this Mini Cooper's 3 Cylinder Turbo engine, it's like Fiesta's 1.0l Ecoboost but with bigger power, and about the same mpg. Too bad the cheapest Cooper costs IDR 550.000.000 (about USD 47,000) in Indonesia.. Thanks for the video Kyle, always appreciate them for helping me know more about the cars without having to go to the showroom.. :D

[@vdmlouis]

Is it worth taking the JCW exterior kit on the 2014 cooper s? (Different bumpers)

[@RembertoBeltran]

Love the exhaust note on the 3cyl mini! It sounds like a baby BMW straight six

[@oscarmayer736]

wow, extremely in-depth review! thanks for this, and if you have the time a similar review on the new 2015 VW GTI would be amazing

[@zahimislam6199]

As for jack cooper, u cn always use converter mode to change any type of measurement.. I knw what u r going thru

[@korintusnara7563]

great job kyle ! :D

[@sd9874]

Wonderful review, thank you

[@NikoBell12]

I like it. I saw a new black on orange one two weeks ago hauling ass onto 1604.

[@MrJalen353]

could you do a 2019 Mini Clubman JCW? Thinking about purchasing one very soon. Thanks!

[@KAMU13]

Is there an option to add AWD in any of the trims?

[@josephimpeduglia2327]

Great review!

[@Hienric]

I've owned an R53 JCW and an R56 Cooper S and this new one looks SO much cooler than them!

[@Swantomdisire]

I love the new MINI. I would opt for the Cooper S myself because I like a sportier car. Great review Kyle.

[@SmokyBarret]

Sounds surprisingly nice

[@Kiml_ly]

mini coopers are awesome!!!!

[@outragedowen]

Thank you for directing me to this video. I did not know that the F56 was the newest model. I thought the new body style came out in 2015.

[@rickygarcia2809]

Does anyone know the official mpg on these cars? Mini's website says TBD on mpg.

[@peternyborg6588]

A really good review!

[@dansterwerecool]

yey, they finally brought the old mini style back, actually doesnt look half bd now.

[@omarshehata5471]

which motor is better the 3 cylinder or the 4 cylinder ?

[@jacknaiper6466]

Never really looked into the Mini Cooper. Really nice vehicle.

[@andyross37]

This was probably the most in depth report I've seen on the F56! Enjoyed every minute and now subscribed to your channel. My F56 is on order, can't wait. Not sure if I'm upgrading or downgrading from my current 2011 JCW though!

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks for the feedback Andy, much appreciated! Enjoy the new car!

[@me109cito5]

Owesome report, still have not decided if I should go for the Mini Countryman or Hard Top 4 door, to be honest it is proving to be quite dificult as they both offer some of the same features and some quite unique to each of its own. Also subscribed to your channel, your report is just what I needed to see to get all the infrormation I needed, Thanks!!

[@applemacbook13]

Proud R53 owner myself! I love the toggle switches in the interior, very neat!

[@MyDude57]

Kyle would you be able to do a review on the 2014 challenger? thanks

[@Jannik389]

Are the LED headlights with or without cornering light? Thanks for reply soon :)

[@zahimislam6199]

Luv the review.. is d panoramic roof cn b opened like any sunroof?

[@DrDuu]

Very good review, thank you.

[@CarringtonHollister]

I so want a Mini Cooper now.

[@StatusHype101]

Hey sabbkyle i was wondering if you can give a review about the dodge journey im looking into that vehicle to buy and i cant find any good reviews and i thought of you.

[@alex233331]

Great review!!!

[@stevevang03]

are these new generation Mini more reliable than the older Mini?

[@joshuasomaiah1095]

Have you done a review on the acura rlx ? I'd also love to see a review of the upcoming tlx , you do a great job !

[@josuecuevas98]

Great review

[@ierik]

Love this video. Going to forward it to my wife.

[@LClaud94]

bout my 2014 cooper s about a month ago and it is in my opinion much better than the 08 cooper s i had before its just all around more smooth and feels better built and actually worth the price tag.
