Sports car and very beatiful car

Good performance and comfort travel in Mini Cooper and so also gear automatic or transmission is available, your facilities are modified the car and interior work are royal thank you

Its superb car

Nice compact SUV for city and long drives. For city driving 7-8 kmpl and highway driving it’s giving 12-14 kmpl. The overall drive experience is smooth. Ambient lighting during the night gives a luxurious feel.
