Great Fun!

This is the most fun to drive vehicle I have ever owned. The automatic transmission is great around town, but the option to shift yourself adds great fun and enhanced performance during play time. The full convertible with the option to use it as a sunroof adds fantastic variety, especially in rapidly changing weather conditions.

After 18000 miles, there is little I would change about the MINI Cooper S. Performance is excellent in all aspects and the MCS is a blast to drive. You can't help but have a broad smile after a drive. Overall mileage rarely drops under 30 mpg. One weak point is tire wear. The front tires of my first set of Dunlop all weathers was ready for replacement at 16000 miles. With the standard suspension, the ride is firm but not jarring. Controls, though uniquely placed, are easy to learn and sensible. Of some fifty cars I've owned, the MCS sits at the top of my fun to drive list!

I love this car all around! This vehicle is fun to drive the style is like nothing I've ever seen and I love the fact that I can be unique with my car. I don't know any other car that matches it.

The MINI Cooper and all its different models are great and are totally an expression of the owner's personality. Love how customizeable it is. The handling and acceleration on the S is awesome. Totally a fun car to drive around in & turns heads.
