If you saw the initial pictures of the Mini Coupe and thought, ‘Hmm, maybe it's just one of those cars that doesn't quite work in photos", you were wrong. The Mini Coupe looks every bit as strange in the metal as it does on the screen in front of you.

Whether good-strange or bad-strange is down to personal taste - initially I thought the Coupe revolting, yet after a couple of days developed a begrudging affection for its unapologetic lack of sleekness (then again, I always rather liked the Lancia Hyena, so read into that what you will) - but this is an unquestionably brash, eye-challenging bit of design.
