James Hunt, Niki Lauda, Dean Martin, Jackie Icx are perhaps some of the most prolific race drivers of our time, but aside from that they were all Mini owners and swore by their Coopers. I’d say just those affiliations make it worth wanting a Mini Cooper, but a lot has changed since then, and now you don’t just buy a Mini you pick a personality. The new 2021 range of Mini Coopers includes the Mini John Cooper Works, the Convertible and the standard Mini Cooper S. Instead of your average car review, we decided to divvy up the Minis among us, each one picking the Cooper that best matched our personality and tell you what makes them so special. Unfortunately, while we tried to conduct our personality tests, Abhik drove away with the crew in the JCW and left me and Dhruv to pick between the convertible and the 3-Door. Long story short I ended up in the neon convertible on the back roads of the Aravallis.
