Uncle Che summed up
For those who want to buy a sufficient personality and a certain degree of practicality, mini clubman is indeed a better choice, the model in many places reflect good practicality and convenience, while the overall design can still bring you a lot of return rate. From the price side, it can be seen that the limited edition model has increased by 0.5 million yuan compared with the original overall, and the different pulling elements have a certain attraction for its fans, but it further reduces the overall cost performance, and it is indeed not worth buying from a rational point of view. Now that the Beetle has stopped production, SMART is gone, Fiat 500 quality control is a mess and simply does not import, with a luxurious and exquisite style of the car is left MINI, I don't know how long it can last?
