MINI Aceman Review: Everyday Strengths and Real Trade-Offs

MINI Aceman comes across as sensible rather than dramatic, which is not a bad direction for a daily car. The useful detail sits in a SUV shape, 4079 mm length with a 2606 mm wheelbase and 1 visual references, which gives the car more shape in real use. The styling reads as neat and sensible, even if it is not the loudest thing in its class. That tends to show itself fastest in weekday commuting, when the easy bits and the compromises stop hiding.
