This is the most fun I've had driving since my 70 Pontiac Trans-am. My Mini has several after-market additions and is an absolute delight. You just want to get in and drive. And WOW, what a ride it is. I'm a big guy and was put off by the size till I climbed in and drove the car. It's roomy, comfortable and offers excellent driver visibility. Mine has dual moon roofs and tinted glass all the way around--highly recommend that trick. The roadability is superb. Get the S- model with a 6-speed Getrag and you're in for a real thrill. This car wants to go 70 mph so you'll want to watch the foot because 70 in this car is like 50 in another car. Go for it!!!

I purchased this vehicle new and use it mainly to run around town in. I have in it for service one time with no major problems. The only problem I have ever had was the rear hatch had a problem staying closed. They fixed it.A great car, a great price, I would certainly purchase another one.

This is my third Mini - drove two in Europe - I just love, my clients love it, and even my very tall friends are comfortable and get a kick out of it. I will NEVER change brands. There are a few problems, but all are curable. I've driven lots of different brands since I began to drive in 1956 and the MINI is #1
