I picked up my new Mini Coper S two weeks a go. What a hoot! Lots of room, fun to drive, a head turner wherever I go. Even my ex-wife likes it!. BMW got it right in designing this, and it's affordable. I was also considering an Aidi TT, but this is just more fun!

I purchased my Mini in July 03 in Nashville, Tennessee. I had first seen them on the movie The Italian Job and fell in love with them then, never dreaming I would ever own one. We dropped by the Mini of Nashville just to look and test drive one just to see what they were like, with a couple of hours I was the PROUD owner of a yellow Mini with black bonnet stripes. One week later I was offered more money than I paid for it and turned it down without blinking an eye. That's how much I love it! Which is helps that I am only 4'8". The car fits me like a glove!!

I was a Mini Cooper Fan-Fantastic. every time, I saw another Mini Cooper driver I would wave emphatically or nod knowingly. Not so ecstatic now. After only 15,000 miles my 04 Certified Pre-Owned Mini Cooper S w/extended warranty fell-to-pieces. Here is the quick math (approx. miles): 38,700 miles Bought a Certified Pre-Owned Mini w/ extended warranty-April 08 38,708 miles Returned car because the rear bumper was two-toned-April 08 46,629 miles The crankshaft pulley, bolt, tensioner were repaired-Jan. 09 53,000 miles The Clutch, tire arms, tire bolts, tires…all need repairs-Oct. 09 The "True Cost of owning this Mini is just starting @ $6,600. Read the forums & know before you buy.

Mini Cooper Proves Size Does Matter

Since purchasing our Mini we've been seen driving around Southern California with an endless grin on our faces! The inside is very roomy. I have two teenage kids and we can all 4 fit comfortably inside our Mini without anyone having to sit with their knees in their chest. We attended our first Mini Rally (9/13/03) and had a chance to really play with the car and it performed awesome! Ours is the Mini, but handled and performed as well as the Cooper "S" on every twist and turn. The exterior styling is eye-catching. I have never had so many strangers approach me in all my life. Everyone wants to look at this car!
