Used Mini Cooper - Cute, Nimble & Quirky

Used Mini Cooper - Cute, Nimble & Quirky

The Mini Cooper is iconic, and if you’re in the market for a used one, you should definitely be more discerning. Don’t be tempted by the price, especially if the model of the car is not the right one. Daniel will share which version of the car you should pick, and as always, the caveats that come with owning a Mini that’s now manufactured by BMW.

But before we get to that, we look at some of the cars that have been unveiled here, and across the globe. Locally, Chery is planning to shake up the market once again by announcing the Chery Tiggo Cross, a B-segment SUV that’s available both in petrol and hybrid variants. MG, meanwhile, introduced a more affordable, RWD version of its sporty MG Cyberster. Elsewhere, Mazda announced a new CX-5, while Maserati welcomed a new model to their family in the form of the MCPura.

In our discussion segment, we talk about the best selling EVs in Malaysia so far, and surprise, surprise - most of them are from China.
