MINI is taking the craze for personalisation to extreme lengths with the launch of a six metre long MINI Cooper S limo called the MINI XXL which will make its world premiere in Athens this week.

TOM : Then we look for comfort. Not in terms of DVD players and electric butt-scratchers, but we want an older driver to feel comfortable behind the wheel, because a person who is comfortable driving his or her car is a better, safer driver.

RAY : There are other specific needs people might have, like ease of entry and exit, and large, readable instrumentation. But appropriate size, visibility and driver comfort and confidence are at the top of our list.

TOM : While the Honda Civic meets all of those criteria, we think you should get the Mini Cooper, Isaac.

RAY : Absolutely. We’ve just been test-driving a new Mini, and it’s got great visibility, it’s fun to drive, it’s easy to get in and out of, it doesn’t feel small inside, and you can fit into half a parking space.

TOM : And if you’re itching to get one, what are you waiting for? Your roaring 80s? If the majority of your driving is around town, and you don’t have to schlep lots of kids or passengers, the Mini is the perfect car.
