I have owned four different convertibles starting with a Volkswagen Beetle, followed by a Mazda Miata, a Toyota MR2 Spyder, and now my Mini Cooper. I love, love, love this car and so does everyone that sees it.

30 mpg in city driving plus the performance (smaller engine) makes this a fabulous about town car -- definately NOT a go-cart.

2005 MINI Cooper S 2dr Convertible (1.6L 4cyl S/C 6M)

I love this car! It is a blast to drive. I wouldn't take it on a long trip, but around town it is great fun. The convertible is really cool. The seats have warmers in them if your sidekick gets cold. The interior is very retro, very cool! Go and test drive one and I guarantee you'll want one. It is a little bit high on the price for the S Convertible, but it is worth the money. If only my wife would let me drive it more! People often will yell at us while we are in the car "Cool Car!". And, it is.

This is just down right, fun! My husband bought it for lengthy drive to work, or so he says! The S-model is quick, a step up from its regular model sibling, which was sluggish to me. I've wanted a convertible since I had one in my teens, and this is perfect. Great for his commute, and for weekends when the 4 kids aren't here! Not too much room for passengers...but that's not what this car is for! Have fun with this one!!!

I miss my MINI Cooper. I had a 2005 custom-built to my liking and had it for 2 yrs. I had the opportunity to drive it on English roads and it was perfect for the winding narrow streets and small parking spots. I averaged 29mpg, which I thought was great, giving me about 400 miles per tank. I am 6'3 and was able to fit perfectly, but no one could sit behind me. I had a baby and got rid of it for an SUV - big mistake.
