Mini’s minier Mini
We knew Mini was cooking up something to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Alex Issigonis’ original design, and here it is: the Mini Coupe Concept.
It’s a two-door, lower-roofed take on the John Cooper Works car which, says Mini, could reach the market in a couple of years’ time to take on the Peugeot RCZ and Audi TT.
Near-identical to the JCW below the beltline, the Coupe Concept stands 5cm shorter and features a more steeply raked windscreen and a big roof spoiler.
Mini design director Gert Hildebrand says the design of the floating roof was inspired the sight of his teenage son wearing a baseball cap backwards. Oh dear. ‘Ah, my precocious child! Your attempts to emulate style icon Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit shall be forever immortalised in roof form!’
Despite ourselves, we can actually see where he’s coming from – just take a look at the Coupe Concept in profile. However, we suspect it might have been one of those awful golf visors rather than a baseball cap that provided the inspiration. We don’t know if this makes Herr Hildebrand’s confession better or worse.
The Coupe Concept shares the JCW Mini's 208bhp, 1.6-litre turbo engine. Expected to weigh in around 100kg lighter than the Mini hatch – thanks in part to the removal of the rear seats – that should guarantee lively performance. We’d expect a 0-62mph time of around six seconds flat, and tidy handling thanks to the lower centre of gravity.
We’ll don our yoof headwear in reverse fashion for a full perusal of the Coupe Concept at the Frankfurt show next month. Though BMW says it has not yet decided whether to put the Mini Coupe into production, the Germans insist it is a definite possibility.
Reckon they should build it?
Want to comment on this?
Come to think, Mini never did do a 'mini' coupe, have they? The closest to one of those so far has been the Smart Roadster. And you don't want one of those. Not when you HAVE to have it with a stupid flappy paddle gearbox that takes a week to change gear. Get rid of the stupid roof, and it'd look great. :)

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, this is an early April Fools joke isn't it!? It has to be one of the worst looking things I have ever seen. Will BMW ever stop trying to get as much money as they can from what is now a very un-cool car? Please BMW, don't ever let this car see the light of day!

BMW made a ghastly coupéish car already (the X6, for the uninformed) and now it has come up with another one. Jesus.

Woh, woh, woh, woh! I am sorry, but it would appear that some fat person has just sat on a mini. The proportions are entirely wrong and will never be a contender in the pretty steaks next to the Pug RCZ or the TT. Please Mini, for the love of god, DO NOT MAKE THIS!

The thing I am left thinking with this is while it's a concept, it really looks like a marketing man's idea. Let's look at the thinking - people love Minis and they love fashionable coupés...so we take our highest performance Mini, we make it look like a sportier, fashionable coupé and take out two seats to make it lighter and faster. It should sell like hot cakes! Yay bonuses for everyone! Will it work? Probably, but it ends up not really looking like a Mini, or a proper 2-door sporty car. It's like that Golf W12 concept in a sense - why, if you're creating a performance car, even a mid-range one, would you have it look like a Mini if there's no practical benefits? Maybe I'm just cynical or don't get it being a product of fashion in some way, but I'd not have it. Looks? For what it is it isn't bad. The roof doesn't look right but then again, the concept itself is flawed to me so, umm, yeah...whatever...

I worry about BMW. First they pull out of F1, then they create this awful doodle. Someone got up in the morning and thought "Shall I put a backward baseball cap on a Mini today, or should I do something else, something new and interesting, utilising the endless resources at my disposal." Probably a good thing Alec Issigonis isn't around to comment.

I can't decide whether to like this or not. It looks a bit wrong: that smooth roofline stuck to a clunky toy car (let's face it, the Mini looks like a toy car but in a good way). It's as if someone took a Lamborghini top and attached it to a mid-80's Volvo body. Then again, this might work. It seems to grow on me the more I look at the photos... which kind of makes me want to stop looking too much. Either way, if BMW wants this to be taken seriously they shouldn't mention where the inspiration came from.

I think from a Mini point of view this will take them into overdrive, imagine a coupe mini available... every woman and hairdresser in the universe will want one. From a marketing point of view it is an excellent addition to the range to build on the brand. As a motor.. it isn't exactly an aesthetic masterpiece but I bet it will be a blast round the B-roads!

God dammit BMW, haven't you slaughtered the Mini name enough yet? And who wants a car wearing a Kangol (bere-type hat) back to front? This is just so daft, and look at that stupid behind!. If you needed inspiration, look at the Mini Monte Carlo (ACV 30) concept car. Otherwise, leave the custom jobs to the enthusiasts. I hope this never makes production, and dies in the womb alongside the SUV that was at a recent Motor Show. If it were a lower slightly more raked hatchback, then they could've called it the Mini Sprint (an old SE that was more coupe-ish, but still Mini-shaped), but this is inexcusable. And yes, I own an old (read: proper) Mini. And I'm keeping it.

The first MINI I don't like. It looks like someone dropped a Mk1 Vauxhall TIgra on a standard MINI, and this was the result. And I think BMW have completely lost the plot with the MINI brand. I wonder what they'll do with the now-confirmed Isetta brand when it returns?!?!

The top of the boot needs to be rounded off - the rest of it sort of works as a rounded shape but the square rear clashes. Thanks, but I'll stick with my MINI hatch.

You know the expression "Strait to Video" or "Strait to DVD"? Well I have a feeling we will refer to this thing as "Strait to USA". This won't sell in big numbers over here (not for long at least) but the yanks will yum it up - "Its a Mini but like a proper car shape!". As for BMW making this thing, please go away and stop making such god awful looking cars already.

OH NO!! I just remembered what this reminds me of. In 1966 some misguided person did a Mini "fastback". Alarmingly - that might mean there is a historical precedent and, like the Clubman, they therefore might make it! See: http://www.users.bigpond.net.au/TheMiniMan/webpagepractise4/Coverwheels1966.jpg

As an owner of an original mini and a BMW Cooper S I think that BMW has hit the jackpot with this car. As I am 5"10 with shoulders the size of two felled trees I found that the Cooper S was just right in the front but the rear leg room is poor once I have adjusted my seat to my driving position. Now the speedster can solve this by removing the rear seats..which it has done. Anyone who complains about the car by the looks must have a lack of a true knowlege of sports cars (two seats front engined and more importantly to drive with a smile on your face It really is a go-kart!). Anyone who still disagrees with the looks and says it's on par with a G-wiz must have either no sense of style and has never heard of "The Jam" or Paul Weller (Mini united '09) mind you anyone who does say it's ugly must have a Sh*t car like a saxo or a Austin Maxi...... BMW pepper white German like plates and a cooper works set up please!

I much like what they've done to the seats, but that's a bit off topic. Considering the car: they should have done something to make the front end special, then they could have presented it as a tribute to the Marcos Mini. Now it's nothing much. Mind you, they did a roadster as well on the same basis, and that one looks pretty good.

I am not happy with that design. The roof looks oddly detached from the rest of the car. If there was some attempt to connect the roof via B- or C-pillar with the body it could look alright but right now it looks like a failed tuner's top chop.

the main problem I see is that the mini chassis is designed for front-wheel drive, meaning that if it is going to contend with the audi TT it will need rear or four wheel drive, meaning a complete redesign of everything.. So it's not really a mini.

This is the kind of car that will definitely sell, despite how ugly or unorthodox many might think of right now. But mark my word, should BMW make it, they will run wild on the streets, and they will begin to grow on you, and everybody else. And come one day, you will cry ''Why God!! Why?!!!" while your daughter tell you its either this or a Beetle! Why?! Don't like the reality?

I love the idea of a mini coupe but I was more thinking of something like the Volkswagen Scirocco not a mini with a chavs baseball cap put on top of it. Thats might why they designed the roof like that to match the person who is most like to buy it (a chav with a matching baseball cap) please scrap this design and more a more safer designer that is actually nice to look at and not a great start in my mind for the new bmw designer
