crap excuse. sorry it's all down to desgin.
Cooper Coupe...
For what it's worth, i certainly wouldn't buy one for this reason, it's a flawed design in my opinion
yep, bad design, but there are already a few bad designs with the R56(blinds, compartment pack, leather interior, sound of rushing water, diesel noise....):( :( :(
I think this will put off a lot of UK families from buying one, which is a shame as the MINI all started in the UK.. :(
The fuel tank is right underneath the car is it not. All they would need to do is move the filler neck in order to get the door in.
