Nice Ride

After buying my used Mini-Cooper from Car Guru five years ago, I enjoy driving “Grace” around my neighborhood. I’m retired, therefore she isn’t on the road much. I have so much fun while in her. I really have no regrets whatsoever.

An affordable GT - fun to drive!

We spent several months looking for the right MINI in 2018. This is our 4th season driving this wonderful sportster. Affordable to own and maintain, a great summer driver for the 2 of us and our little dog. Loves the back roads of northern New England.

Great cars have two, 2010 hard top around 90k miles, a 2006 S model, turbo, leather, convertible with 23k miles. Love it!

92000+/- love it, also have a 2006 S model, turbo, convertible,leather,...love it. Learn to do most of maintenance items yourself. Have replaced sensors. Decided to have the thermostat replaced for me. 2.5 hours labor. My back won't hold up that long.

Everything is breaking

I haven't had this car for even a month and tho I bought it used there couldn't be to much more wrong with it. I need a new motor because 2 cylinders are seized with 0 compression, it was obviously worked on because there is a C clamp where there's Is supposed to be a ball joint in the A arm, the starter just went out and the lights on the passenger side don't work. And I really like this car but it just keeps breaking and the parts are made by BMW so the expense is a bit overwhelming to say the least.

Fun! Fun! Fun!

The Mini Cooper is a joy to drive. Every single thing is unique in it. You feel the difference when you drive a Mini Cooper than when you drive a regular car. It’s really special. If I ever get another car, I want another Mini.

Not perfect but a great little car.

I bought a used mini that was in rougher shape than I’d been led to believe. The advanced computer system makes diy repair less achievable than one might think. So while repairs have been expensive (in the first year I’ve put about 5k into a car I paid 3k for) it’s a great little car. Almost (but not quite) as fun to drive as my 1999 Miata I love the six speed transmission, the great gas mileage, and the overall handling (front wheel drive pull notwithstanding) This is my first mini so the layout of a lot of controls was unfamiliar. Obviously the size of the car limits who it’s suitable for, but for the right use case it’s hard to beat.

IF YOU DO NOT NEED A ROOMY BACK SEAT ALL THE TIME, THE MINI COOPER s IS THE PERFECT CHOICE

WE HAVE TWO 2010 MINI COOPER 'S' CARS, ONE HAS 122,000 MILES, THE OTHER HAS 103,000 MILES. WOULD BUY THEM AGAIN IN A SECOND! VERY FAST, HANDLES LIKE A SLOT CAR, AND GETS GREAT GAS MILEAGE! ONLY ONE PROBLEM IF YOU BUY THE CAR TODAY: THEY DO NOT SELL STICK SHIFT CARS IN THE UNITED STATES!!

Fun Car to Drive

I love my 2010 Mini Cooper Hardtop! I bought it used one year ago and have been in love with it ever since. In fact, I bought a second Mini Hardtop, a 2013 model, because I can't think of a car that is more fun to drive. It handles like a race car in it's shifting and cornering. I get lots of looks because they both look great. Driving a Mini has made me feel like I'm 20 years old again, even though I am a few decades older than that. I also love it's size for getting in and out of tight parking spaces and changing lanes while driving. The features are so cool too, that I didn't even know some of them existed 10 years ago.

IF YOU DO NOT NEED A ROOMY BACK SEAT ALL THE TIME, THE mINI cOOPER s IS THE PERFECT CHOICE

THE MINI COOPER S, MINE IS A 2010 MODEL, IS A ROCKET SHIP DISGUISED AS AN ECONOMY CAR. IT ACCELERATES LIKE A '60s PONTIAC GTO 389 TRI-POWER, HANDLES AS WELL OR BETTER THAN MY 1969 LOTUS ELAN, AND STOPS LIKE IT HIT A WALL. IN ADDITION, IT RETURNS 35+ MPG CONSISTENTLY, EVEN ON LONG, HIGH-SPEED TRIPS OF 4K MILES OR MORE. WE HAVE GOTTEN AS MUCH AS 42 MPG TRAVELING FROM MARYLAND TO NYC AT LEGAL SPEEDS, AND THE CAR HAS NEVER, IN ITS 118000 MILES (SO FAR) LEFT US STRANDED ON THE ROAD. IF THIS ONE EVER DIES, IT WILL BE REPLACED BY ANOTHER MINI!

Fun, Fun, Fun

My 2010 Mini-Cooper that I’ve purchased last month is a beautiful automobile, outside and inside. I name my cars and when I saw her on CarGuru I fell in love with “Amazing Grace”. She is a joy to drive. She’s handles easily and doesn’t need a heavy foot. I envision loads of fun times with her in the years to come.

My Dream Car

I have always wanted a Mini Cooper since I was old enough to walk. I found it used with barely any miles, the best decision on a car I have ever made and I plan on keeping it until the very last breath leaves my body.

I love my Mini

I have been very happy with my Mini.. If I would change anything it would be that the heater and air conditioner are very difficult to regulate. I think the large speedometer in the middle makes no sense. I never look at it. It tends to be a rough ride.

The best!

This is my fourth Mini. Love it, can park it anywhere, zippy, and great for winding roads. Handles very well in all weather conditions. My model has 2 doors & four seats, but the more useful option is to collapse the rear seats for additional storage.

Cooper

Love it!! My daughter bought this car and decided it was too small for a nanny. My younger daughter plans on it being her first car. We love it!! I wish that the instrument panel had more options like low oil.

Happy overall

Glad I was able to upgrade. I was a die hard Honda fan, still love them, but not the slightest dissappointed by Mini. Performance is great, maintenance has been as expected. I am planning on having this car long term, and will probably get another Mini for my next car.

great Fun and reliable Car

The 2010 Mini Clubman is Fun to drive, very reliable and I will plan on getting another one when I stop driving this one. I look forward to getting a newer model with 4 doors instead of 3 and all-wheel drive in the future.

I hate the high maintenance and repair part charges, but I was informed they would be high when I purchased the car. I love to drive the car, and look at it....even 8 years later. Camaraderie with other owners.
