Same doubts here also and I was a MINI owner since a few month ago. If you want space describe what exactly you need. I had some issues with space in the MINI but being just me and my wife we had no major problems. Now we are expecting a baby in 2 month so we are thinking a bigger car than a MINI. This said a 5 door F20 is enough for us and a baby with baggage and a stroller also in the boot(in extreme cases one of those roof boxes should do the job just fine).
I like the F30's outside and inside looks more than the F20 but considering the performance of the M135 this is a small issue for me. The other issue I am in doubts about is that the yearly tax for a 3 liter engine compared to a 2 liter one here in Romania is 10 times higher so I have not not yet made up my mind plus there are some other financial issues.
