This is my dream car!! Everytime I accelerate I feel as if I am racing someone, the engine revs up and its just amazing!! MINI has great road-side assistance and the people always have you in mind when dealing with any issues. The gas mileage is unbelievable! 32 city 40 highway. It is adorable and yet fierce at the same time, and no two MINI's are alike, sooo many custom options!! BUY ONE, YOU'LL LOVE IT!

This is good looking car. In the past I drove Hondas and Toyotas. Compare to them Mini cooper feels solid and has great performance. It is fuel efficient, easy to park, has nice engine sound, and quality interior. Sports front seats are comfortable. .

It has been an awesome car. It has a powerful engine and in sport mode the handling is twice as much fun to drive! It has a spacious cargo area in back with the back seats down which is great for traveling with pets, luggage or whatever!!!

*Performance - Strong brakes, a fast gettaway car and you'll have no problems dodging people and/or other cars. When on the highway you don't feel you're driving fast! *Build Quality - In the 4 years I've been driving it, it has only needed the usual check-ups and one light bulb replaced... *Appearance - Cool car, but a true girly car... Both exterior as interior is made for a woman. *Cost of Ownership - For a small car is has a huge tank. Makes it more expensive than your average small car, but you do longer with one tank... *Fun Factor - I love to drive this car! It's small, so excellent for the city, and fast, so you don't feel like a snail on the highway.

This was my driving instructors car so I did not have to deal with maintainence or costs but it was very nice to drive. Steering is fast and light, gearbox is very satisfying to use and smooth, decent power means good acceleration and no problems on the motorway. Styling wise I find it mostly nice but it just feels a bit too rounded and soft looking, I prefer the classic true mini from the 60's but this is a decent rehash and maintains the look but it's perhaps too retro. The interior is a very nice place to be though again the retro styling can be a bit too much at some points. Build quality was good, there were never any major mechanical issues while I was using it although some of the casing did come off the handbrake handle when another student was using the car. The car is very grippy and the aformentioned acceleration means you can have a lot of fun with this car especially on rural roads, the car is also very easy to park and use in tight situations.
