Such as in the original Mini, the cabrio version seems a bit strange... it looks unnatural..

Have you ever driven a fixed roof Mini? If yes, what about the differences behind the wheel?

IMO while the regular one is really nice, the cabrio is still nice but to girly :D

I'm going to test the normal version normally this weekend and then I will tell you more about the differences ...

what I can say is that the vision at the back very bad is ... you can't see a thing when the roof is closed due to the seats at the back,
once open, the view is a little better ... but standard there are park-sensors ... wich work very well
