Used 2010 MINI Cooper Hatchback Consumer Reviews
Smile on your face
This car was fantastic. Great for trips or to work. Make sure you watch your fluids as they can drain faster since it’s turbocharged. Gas mileage is great.

Growcery Store Car
This is my 3rd MINI, so I know the pluses and minuses. Stiff ride, fair comfort, handles like a go cart, great steering, easy to park, fun to drive and holds value. We use this hatch for around town ~~ grocery store and around town shopping. Perfect for our needs.

DO NOT BUY...
I'm an engineer. Quality of Mini is truly MINI. Inside it's cheaply made. Wife bought it without 'consulting' with me. As the result, traded it in 8 months later for Toyota Corolla.

Love/hate
Purchased brand new in October, 2010. Mainly got it for my wife. Have taken it on many trips to Florida, Chicago, Canada, New York, and others. Fun to drive, great performance, abysmal reliability. Have had it back to the dealer so many times, I’ve lost count. All engine related problems. Oil leaks, recalls, starting problems, check engine light, and on, and on. Engine was made in France by Peugeot. HUGE mistake. It’s been a money pit since the warranty expired. Rest of the car is great! Transmission (6 speed automatic) is Japanese (thank God!) and has performed flawlessly for over 100K miles. We have not abused the car, and I have never missed any scheduled maintenance requirements. I hear the newer models have a BMW engine. Wish we had waited.
