We picked up a 2014 Cooper (the new model). It has a nice little 3 cylinder turbo.

We test drove the old model and the new model and the difference was significant in terms of ride quality, interior finish, etc.

We only have 10,000 miles on her but all good so far. It gets great mileage and has lots of get up and go when you stomp it. Got my fingers crossed they got it right with the redesign.

I did end up leasing it though (4 years) in case the gremlins start coming out we can give her back.
