Mini Cooper Roadster

 Basically a Cooper convertible with a chopped windshield, a soft top, and a trunk instead of a back seat, the roadster trades practicality for spunky, two-seat style. It drives just like all other Coopers, with great steering and slot-car handling, though with just 121 hp from its a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine, it is a bit on the slow side. Still, the Cooper Roadster is a fuel-efficient two-seater that lets the sun shine in with a flick of the wrist. For more speed, see the S/JCW models.
