I just hope MINI can pull off the implementation.</p> <p>Seems like MINI's doors in the back are an engineering solution looking for a problem. What is wrong with a hatch in a wagon? I have always liked how a hatch is out of your way when you are trying to load things (especially when parallel parked on a street). Regarding 3 vs. 4 doors, I'm also not a big fan of having asymentrical doors. :(</p> <p>Jeffrey</p> Guys, The concept sounds cool. I just hope MINI can pull off the implementation.

Seems like MINI’s doors in the back are an engineering solution looking for a problem. What is wrong with a hatch in a wagon?
