2004 MINI Cooper S Review
ProsFun and a Blast to Drive! ConsIf you have the money buy one!

Best Car I Have Ever Owned — Performance - pretty good pick up for a 4 banger, handles like a go-cart Build Quality - only one major repair had to replace xenon headlight it was under warranty. Appearance - interior & exterior styling is very good. Cost of Ownership - 25mpg on avg between city & hwy, maintenance has been fairly reasonable synthetic oil & filters are a little much but no too bad. Fun Factor - It is a blast to drive. I like watching other cars brake going into a tight corner where I just say is that all you got! Primary Use: Commuting to work

Love It — LOVE IT, better than my 06 330i... It out handles the BMW, as it is so small. It is quiet, comfortable, quick, good on gas, good looking... Free maintenance is sweet too. I can't wait to get another some day, it is paid off so I will keep it a while. | ||

Mini Cooper S A Fun Car — The car is extremely fun and once you get to around 200hp you will be extremely satisfied with it the car almost never fails to put a smile on your face. As far as handling goes I have yet to find anything better. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

I Love It! — The MINI Cooper S has a personality of its own. It holds it's own performance wise. Go-cart handling, snappy acceleration, and great braking are all guaranteed to give you miles of smiles. Manufactured by BMW, it has great build quality and holds its resale value. Gas mileage is decent and it is very dependable. I haven't had any trouble with this car after "owning" it for over two years. And believe it or not, it still turns heads and is a conversation piece wherever I go. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

One Of My Many Dream Cars! — Performance wise the acceleration is quicker than needed and the handling is excellent near the racing quality but still a little play and the braking is very responsive. the gas mileage on this vehicle is excellent but the maintenance can be expensive since it is a European car. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Fun Car With To Little Fun — definitely a fun car, but too little power in low RPM, excellent suspension, drives like a cart, no modifications necessary, good handling, great craftsmanship, excellent quality overall, not economic at all for a car in that category, gas suspension is unreal when you go on the highway and ride it beyond the 200km/h mark Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Let's Make Parks Larger And Parking Spaces Smaller — Everyone should own a MINI. Good acceleration, excellent handling and more fun to drive than the go-cart it is compared to. I should have gotten the sunroof though, but the next one will be better. The super-charger is okay the turbo is more responsive. Oil changes are scheduled at 15,000 miles, the S comes with run flats and there is no shortage of safety features. | ||

Mini Cooper — great performance, fast acceleration, high top speed. Unbeatable build quality, no squeaks or rattles. Absolutely gorgeous, one of the most unique looking cars i've owned. Gas mileage is also unbeatable, on the highway i can get any from 40 and up, low maintenance. Overall the most fun car i've ever driven. besides my dads 911. | ||

ProsThe performance and handling from such a little car, easy to park in small spaces and a real head turner. ConsSports suspension gives a very bumpy ride if the road surface is bad or if you live where i do and expensive to run (tax and fuel).

Great Little Car For A Single Person But Not Practical For A Family Person. — Don't hold the value unless you take it back to the dealers to part ex for another Mini. Not much space in the boot for shopping as i realised the first time i went to Asda. It is the type of car you buy, have fun with it and sell it on. |
