It looks good with the swept back windscreen but I would've preferred it to have a fastback though.

That look very cool. But so would any MINI in that colour combination and wheels.

Not sure how much more of a fastback it could be.

I sort of like it, I think it's interesting but I still think they've missed the mark with the whole car. Blind allegiance? Yup. Narrow mindedness? Yup. WOuld I buy one if I won Lotto? Nup.

I like the increased screen rake - the roof looks a homeboys cap - I think that bit looks crap.
