Spirit of Adrenaline

Never let it be known that we lack refinement or the need for a satisfying reward. Behold the fine hatches from MINI, ranging from the Cooper S to the Cooper D. These cool cars are well-targeted to the fashionistas of our society and will hustle effectively in the bustling city without breaking a sweat. Not forgetting how extremely flattering they will make you feel when you throw them around on the wet track of Phetchaburi's Kaeng Krachan Circuit. Rewarding? Goodness gracious me, most definitely!

So no, the MINI isn't one of those street-ordained head bangers. In fact, the cars that are neatly lined up in front of our very eyes are the opposite of any rebelliously extroverted hot hatches. You see, the thing about the MINI is that it draws your attention to its details of funkiness and simplicity and, most profoundly, reveals ideas about the very relationship it can possibly have between man and machine.

This said idea stays with you even when the weather decides to turn for the worse. As the sun disappears through the thick fluffy clouds and water droplets start to trickle down from the dark vast skies, the true majesty of this curvaceous track begins to expose itself. It's also at this time when the MINIs (we drove both the MINI Cooper S and Cooper D) reveal their honest potential.

It must be heart-wrenchingly tough to be a car enthusiast in Singapore because roads are no longer safe and past car prices that once allowed a nice mixture of car models on the road are now being pointlessly given up in the service of our Government. There is simply no chance to push a car beyond its boundaries to fully expose its possibilities.
