Just thought I'd write a couple of my opinions on the new Mii here. My Ibiza FR is in for its first service today and I've been loaned a 17 plate 1.0 60hp Mii Design. I ALWAYS get a Mii when mine is in for service, I'd much prefer a Leon or an Areca but hey, it gets me from A to B and it's free!
I've driven a few of the older ones too and this is much of an improvement.

The new stereo and phone mount are pretty useful. I like the colour screen and it's easy to navigate. Shame there's STILL no DAB.
Bluetooth is present though and streamed my Spotify perfectly.
The one big new advantage here are the speakers. Wow!
Now, I have SEAT Sound in my Ibiza but the speakers in this Mii are brilliant for such a small car. I noticed there were 6 speakers. Two in the back. Two in the front and two tweeters in the dash/A pillar.
Engine
Ive strangely only had the 75hp Mii's in the past, usually the 'Sport' model. I couldn't tell any difference in power with the 60hp engine I have today. MPG wise, I got 48Mpg on my journey to work this morning. This is achievable in my 1.0EcoTSI Ibiza too so quite surprising there. Maybe I was expecting more from the Mii...
Ride
Seats are nice, suspension is soft compared to my FR. Absorbs pot holes and bumps with ease. Feels like a little go kart. It reminds me of the old Ford KA in this respect. The front and rear windscreens however feel HUGE compared to my Ibiza! There is also more headroom. It's surprisingly roomy.
The steering is nice and precise and smooth which also adds to the go kart feel.
So if anyone is thinking of buying and wants to ask me anything just let me know. I've had a good look around it
