Used 2011 MINI Cooper S Hatchback for Sale near Salt Lake City, UT

I have wanted a MINI for a long time. The car is amazing, very high sharp handling and all the amenities of a luxury car. It is so much fun to drive. I am only getting around 33mpg overall maybe because the car begs to be driven. With the back seats folded down there is plenty of space for trips to Lowe's. I especially like the 3 year no cost maintenance and the 4/50 bumper to bumper warranty. I have never had so much fun with any car than the MINI Copper. It is excellent all-around with great performance. One negative point: When the car was near 800 miles I had to call road side assistance due to a power failure. According to MINI the radio was improperly installed at the factory and eventually drained the battery. It took close to two weeks to get a replacement radio from Germany. Besides that the customer service in all areas was magnificent. I was just worried about this hiccup because none of my Honda's have ever failed me in any capacity.

I really like that the car is small. It makes it lightweight so the power it comes with makes it a pretty quick car. It also has a really nice exhaust note which surprises many unassuming people. The power coming out of turns is unmatched in this class. There is nothing to really complain about the car. I guess you can say it needs a bit more room, but the point of the car is to be small, not a people mover. Although, the rear interior did surprise some people. It was a lot bigger than people thought it was.

Definitely a driver's car. Excellent mileage, tight handling, responsiveness, classic Euro-motor sensibility. The turbo gets you MOVING, and the stick shift is tight. You think about where you want to go, and the car goes there. Some quirky styling, especially with the radio, but you get to know it quickly and it becomes second-nature. Solid, efficient, practical, fun-to-drive commuter or long distance car.

A few YouTube videos described the Mini as a street legal go-cart ... 100% true. Loads of fun! Still determining if its a good value because Im finding issues that were not apparent when test driving. Like low on oil and coolant and a possibly related acceleration issue. All manageable and repairable, I think, but frustrating to have to do this much immediate maintenance on a new (used) car purchase. Hazards of buying used. Overall, very happy. Itll be fun and fulfill its role and reason for being bought.

Really nothing. This would be an especially great car for someone living in a large city. Very maneuverable, easy to park. Typically get 25 +mpg in town and high 30's on the highway. This car belonged to my spouse, who recently passed away after a lengthy illness (hence the vey low mileage.)
