2013 MINI Cooper - Perfectly Mini
The Mini Cooper coupe is a fantastic vehicle for a small car. It looks brilliant, with its contrasting stripes and beautiful finish on the body color. The bucket seats are very comfortable and the controls are just a finger tip away. The precision of the steering system makes this car very maneuverable. The power is enough to get up on the freeway and move with the big rigs. The air conditioning system is first class. The storage area in the back is perfect for two people's groceries. The fuel economy is the best I have ever had in a car. I have driven over 20,000 miles in this car and feel confident that BMW, who owns the label, has put solid engineering in the automobile. It is very stable, even at high speeds. The car has an automatic shift and it moves through the gears very easily... (more)

It is very stable, even at high speeds. The car has an automatic shift and it moves through the gears very easily. The pick up is sufficient that it can pass easily and get out of the way of hazards with the precision steering. The dealer was local and is always just a phone call away if I have any questions. I feel the fuel economy is the best I can do about transitioning away from fossil fuels because I cannot charge the electric cars at my rental abode. There is plenty of head room and the internal lighting is great for reading the controls any time, day or night. The exterior finish is shiny and the colors of the cars are very unique. I have never seen another one like mine on the road. I wish I had this car years ago.
Our car is a star at the swimming pool parking lot because it is sky blue and silver, and the design of the hood makes it seem like it is smiling.

It is so easy to find a parking space. I can around most of the overbuilt shopping center parking lots easily. The car has a beautiful paint job and is easy to keep clean. The fuel economy is excellent at about 30 miles per gallon or more every day.

The vertical height of the car is lower and sometimes larger vehicles cannot seen this little car. I make sure to keep my lights on and honk if I notice that I am overlooked in the car.
The tires, once flat, Mini will not repair, just replace.

2013 MINI Cooper -
Driving:
It is a sports car, and it handles a little rough for my liking. When I first started driving it, I remember how loud it seemed inside the car. However, I am used to that now. I sit very low to the ground, so I think that has to do with feeling every little bump in the road. The car is not the S version so that means better gas mileage, but I find that the car is a little sluggish.
The interior is very cute and more roomy than one might expect. I fit 20 bags of mulch (2 cubic feet each) in the car. I love the circular features that make it look retro. The outside is the reason I bought the car. The Mini is so cute on the outside, like a little baby, and it is the only car that made me understand car love.
The gas mileage, as previously stated, is pretty great, but could be ... (more)

The gas mileage, as previously stated, is pretty great, but could be even better for such a small car.
I do not like that I have to take it to the dealer for every little thing. The dealer had great service, but there is only one in the area and I had to take mine in 4 times in the first year before they finally solved the problem.
People stop me to tell me how cute they think my car is.

It is so cute and I smile when I look at it...Even now.
I love how the car suits me perfectly.
I love how there is a little cult following for the car, even though I don't do that sort of thing.
I do love how I fit everywhere in my teeny cute little car. I really do love it, but she is a princess. Princesses are expensive.

It was expensive, but I had to have it.
I don't like how I void my warranty unless I go to the dealer.
Oil changes are very expensive, but I bought a pack of them when I first bought the car.

2010 MINI Cooper - Mini Cooper is a decent car.
I love that this vehicle is small. It is a great vehicle for a single lady. I like that I can park my Mini almost anywhere, and I have no trouble getting into parking spaces. This vehicle also has great gas mileage, and I can go nearly 450 miles in between fill ups. The ride is pretty smooth inside of a Mini, and it is easy to drive. I dislike that this vehicle is so low to the ground. If I go over elevated roads or speed bumps, I have to go slowly because if I don't the bottom of the Mini will get scraped. I also dislike that this vehicle takes premium gasoline, as it costs more. There is limited trunk space in the Mini, which is great for getting a few groceries but not for hauling things.

I also dislike that this vehicle takes premium gasoline, as it costs more. There is limited trunk space in the Mini, which is great for getting a few groceries but not for hauling things. This limited space means that the backseat is not at all spacious and uncomfortable for people to ride in. My friends are practically hugging their knees when they sit in the back seat of my Mini. This car is expensive when it comes to repairs or service. I believe the oil change cost me around 200 dollars. Overall, this is a decent vehicle, and I would likely recommend it to anyone who is single.
I took this vehicle on a drive around a very twisty road. It was really fun, as this vehicle is small and can go fast, so it was sort of like driving a race car.

The Mini Cooper is a great car for people who are single and don't have many backseat passengers. It small size is a great quality for a vehicle because it can be parked anywhere, and you won't have trouble getting into parking spaces. The small size is also great because you can easily hand wash the outside of the car to clean it. The gas mileage is wonderful, and the driver can go around 450 miles between fill ups.

The Mini Cooper is easy to drive, rides smooth, and can quickly reach high speeds in a matter of seconds. The body shape of the car is very unique and is perfect for those who want to stand out. The interior is a soft leather, and the seats are very comfortable. This also makes cleaning the car easy, as I just wipe the seats with a cloth. Similarly, the mats of the car are removable which makes cleaning the floors easy. There is an adjustable sun roof that is great to use during the summer when you need some fresh air. The size of the windshield and windows is large for its size, so it makes it easier to see other drivers. Overall, there are many things I like about owning a Mini Cooper.
The size of the vehicle also has its negatives. One negative is that the Mini Cooper is low to the ground. This means that it easily scrapes against any elevated roads or speed bumps. If I am not careful when I drive over elevated areas, then I could damage the undercarriage of the vehicle. Another negative to its small size is that the inside gets dirty quickly, and it is hard to clean all of the tiny nooks and crannies inside the vehicle. It is strenuous when vacuuming and cleaning the small interior of my Mini Cooper. The small size makes this vehicle impractical for individuals w... (more)

Another negative to its small size is that the inside gets dirty quickly, and it is hard to clean all of the tiny nooks and crannies inside the vehicle. It is strenuous when vacuuming and cleaning the small interior of my Mini Cooper. The small size makes this vehicle impractical for individuals who have a family or like to drive friends around. There are only two doors on the Mini, so that means people who want to sit in the back seat must climb into the back. This is a big problem because the individual practically has to fold themselves in order to get into and out of the small back seat. This also means that the back seat has very limited leg room and makes for an uncomfortable back seat ride. The amount of trunk space is also small. This means that you cannot haul a lot. Last, it is a little expensive in the area of fuel and maintenance. It only takes premium gasoline, which is more expensive and maintenance and repairs are costly.
