This car is fun to drive and own. Trying to keep it within the speed limit is difficult. I purchased a radar detector before I filled the tank for the first time. The only downside was getting the run-flat tire repaired after I picked up a nail on the street.

Althought this car is less than a month old, I traded in a Hatchback Cooper S with 30,000 miles that I purchased 3 years ago. My evaluation would be the same for the MINI I traded except for performance. My new car has the John Cooper Works kit which boosts the horse power from about 167 to 207. This makes the car really get up and go. I have had numerous sports cars over the years--Maserati, Porsche, Corvette, etc. and this handles as well as any of them.

Driving shouldn't be this much fun. Corners are the best... on my test drive I was actually INSTRUCTED to floor it on tight turns and bumps and it performed great. Awesome gas mileage, one touch convertible top operation. Smooth ride even at high speeds. My only complaint is the cup holders....
Love the MINI Cooper Convertible

The interior of the MINI Cooper convertible is much larger than it appears if you are outside the car. Leg room in the rear seats is limited (but that's not a problem for me). The car is very responsive and a lot of fun to drive. I have the basic model but I find that the horsepower is more than adequate for my driving. And I love the overall look of the car.
Fun with a Mini

Find this car to be the most fun and exciting. Owned a Porsche 911SC for 20 years and the Mini is just a joy and a kick to drive. Handling, gearbox and acceleration are superb. 4,000 miles and not a rattle or even one minor problem.
