I must admit that I think a Mini should be a Mini, not taller car based on the same floor-pan, and the same can be said for the Fiat 500, however I do like the look of this.
Interesting that people questions Morgans accessory price policy, but take a look at what was written about the Mini Paceman.
"Let’s talk money. The Paceman starts at £18,970 for a 1.6-litre Cooper model. The turbocharged Cooper S is £22,355, but Mini as ever makes its money when you start accessorising. Our test car had the £2445 Chili Pack (18in rims, xenon lights, ambient lighting, rain sensor and more) and the £1630 Media Pack, which adds sat-nav, Bluetooth, and voice control. Add in a few other choice extras, including chrome body trim, the powerful Harmon Kardon hi-fi, heated leather seats and (ahem) red paint with a white roof, and you’ve got yourself a £28,865 Mini. It’s a very tidy spec, sure, but at £1330 behind a Range Rover Evoque – "
I'd have to see it in the flesh ... looks promising, a worthy addition to my 2002 MINI Cooper S JCW. However, MINI has BMW pricing strategies, as noted above. Options are pricey. The Paceman had a $2,500 USD premium above the Cooper, basically just for the Paceman body style !
This was without any of the AWD or performance bits ... As long as they don't change the dash and put in the dinner plate sized speedo ...

You know it makes sense!
