Absolutely love the retro look of the Mini R in Burnt Orange—it turns heads everywhere we go! For a micro caravan, the interior layout is remarkably clever. The monocoque fiberglass shell kept us completely warm and dry during a windy weekend trip. Towing is smooth even with a smaller hatchback, and setup takes just minutes. The only minor trade-off is the single-burner hob and compact bed size, but for a lightweight weekend getaway vehicle, it’s unbeatable value
