2004 Mini Cooper S

I have owned this car for 14 years and I still love driving it. It has 210k miles now. Repairs can be expensive but overall it has been very reliable. No major engine repairs and transmission and clutch are still solid. Love the styling and very fun to drive.

Plain S

Quick and sporty! Nothing fancy is what I have! I wanted something fast yet great on fuel economy and found it in this car. I love it so much that I recently purchased another...same year! I plan on buying another in the near future with every feature available!!

Like all European cars....it needs work

Bought this for the manual transmission and it was really cheap. However, the reason was it needed over $2000 in parts alone. So it became a 15yr old “rescue”. After getting it into good running condition I am pleasantly surprised by its character and the complements I get. Kids love it and so does Mrs. great mileage. Learn to fix it in your own as the maintenance adds up, especially the S model.

Coming up to 100,000 wonderful miles

Our family need has changed, I am not looking forward to the day when M&N's Mini will have to go. Our Mini traveled to Florida, Tennessee and Canada, always a pleasure to be on the road, the Mini handles like no other car I have driven, and at 87 years that is MANY. Norm Hollis

Super Fun Cool Ride

I've had my mini cooperS for over 10years now and still loving it! It's fun to drive, except in stop and go traffic when my left foot gets tired being on & off the clutch. Plus, it's super cute and cool looking!!! The only other not so fun part is when it needs repairs, but it's been very reliable and has only needed usual maintenance or wear and tear repairs. I also love how easy it is to put large items in the hatchback and fit several large items when the seats are folded down.

Tired Mini Cooper

I find the Mini a very satisfactory city car for my needs. It also travels very well for a small, noisy car. I am quite pleased with the 38 MPG traveling secondary roads. The maintenance upkeep on my aging Mini is relatively expensive.
