Really in a word "
Perfection "
It is the Hardtop base model in the US. Comes from having to say to an S/JCW owner 'No I just have a Cooper' So it is easier to I have a Justa.

It's actually not the "base" model. In the UK, they have the MINI First at 75 hp, and the MINI One at 98 hp. The Cooper at 121 hp is a naturally aspirated hot rod by comparison.

Some of us prefer to call it a Straight Cooper, vs the humorously derogatory moniker of Justa.

I like it; I don't think it's derogatory at all. Just like I don't mind people calling the stock wheels "holies" lol

Normally aspirated, 'normal' - it takes in air from one end and passes gasses out the other. Without any 'abnormal' use of its effluents.

A "justa" is what some call the base model MINI, which is actually an MC.

Maybe the S and JCW should be called 'Boosta' Coopers.
