I have had numerous cars over the years. Company and personal. The MINI Cooper is by far the most fun to drive. Handling is great. Acceleration is fine and exceptional with the turbo.

IÂve had my MINI Cooper Hatchback for about 7500 miles and 8 months now. I got just what I wanted when I ordered it. This is just about the perfect City car  itÂs small and easy to park, the gas mileage is excellent, itÂs super fun to drive (6sp manual!) and handles like a go-kart on steroids. Moves out smartly for something with just 121hp; I think that the 6M is the way to go for the base Cooper without the turbo. For 1 or 2 people just running around town to work, the grocery store, the movies or the mall  itÂs hard to beat. ItÂs just very efficient in every way compared to a minivan or a pickup, unless needed. You can actually fit lots in the back with the seats folded down!

Three and one-half years into this car, I have never been disappointed. Kickass performance, BMW-equivalent service levels, and go-kart like handling says it all. Holding on to this one!

I bought my car about a year ago, the Bayswater package. It is everything I ever wanted in a car! It's fun to drive, easy to park (I work on a college campus and I can always squeeze it in somewhere), has style and good gas mileage too. I've only had a couple of issues, 1) the service engine light came on after a few months and the dealer said I must have put regular gas in it, not the premium, and 2) the door is hard to open sometimes. I'm taking it in for a year service next week so I hope to get that fixed. Press the button door locking is my favorite feature. I also drive on gravel everyday and it handles great.

I've owned my Mini for a little over two years. I love the handling, interior quality and fuel economy (I average 38 MPGs). The back should be illegal, but I usually don't have need for it. On sunny days when the sun is at just the right angle, the dual sun-roofs, which are awesome otherwise, don't have real shades, leaving you blinded by the light. I'm not crazy about the speedometer in the middle of the car. The engine is definitely underpowered, but having a manual 6-speed makes the most it. Reliability-wise, the motor has developed an oil leak which is costing me a little over $600 to get fixed. Other than that, it has been reliable. Overall, I've had a good experience with this car. It feels like a small European sports car with great fuel economy.
