I think it looks pretty good! door does seem small but would need to see it up close, big square window thing looks odd but again will need to wait for more pics.

does look very much like a 4 door mini that has been made taller and the handbrake looks like the handbrake from the megane that preceeds the current megane ,i e the handbrake looks like a grab handle that goes from right to left as on a plane
