A new Mini is in town, so grace yourself to meet the 2016 Mini Convertible that recently made its Philippines debut on 6th May 2016 at Bonifacio Global City dealership. With its entry the limited Mini line-up of six cars has now extended further, giving the consumers a wider spectrum to choose from. This car is new for the Philippines audience but in the global market the car has been ruling for a year now, and it had got its share of both praises and criticism. It's time now to see how this open-top hatchback will be treated in the Philippines. Will it be able to make it to make it to the doors of the riches or will it only get to meet the showroom dust? Only the time will tell.
2016 Mini Convertible is offered in two trim, named as Mini Cooper Convertible and Mini Cooper S Convertible.
