Solid review. I agree on the manual seats - no reason we can't have power with the JCW seats. Fun factor score seems a little low to me.

 

I trust Doug DeMuro as his vehicle choices have just been droolworthy. People who bash the CM as being expensive really don't understand that you are getting a, in my opinion, a nicer X1 at a great discount. The interior is worthy or a $50k car in the case of the JCW. Minis really are the happiest cars in the world.
