There is something very wrong with the throttle and/or transmission in the 2013 model that mini is not interesting in fixing. Mine started missing and experiencing erratic acceleration after just about a month. I hate driving this car. I never know if it will go when I press the gas pedal and have almost been rear-ended and hit from the side when the car delays before accelerating or stops accelerating abruptly. Had one before that I loved, but I really hate this car.

Not a family car by any means but as a fun commuter and weekend joy rider it's tough to beat. An easy to enter and exit sporty vehicle that corners like a go kart on steroids. Keep in mind it's called a mini for a reason!

I really like this car. It's fun to drive and holds the road well. I do need another set of tires for in the snow though. Repairs are very costly especially if done at the Mini dealership. The car was pretty expensive to buy new too. The convertible top is easy to use. Just an overall fun to drive car.

Fun car to drive

I had larger cars in the past and decided to venture out for a smaller fun car. The MINI is all this and more. Hugs the road with great handling, great fuel economy, tightly built and dependable. The car takes premium fuel. The dealer had indicated you can get away with regular or mid-grade. Do not try it. You will lose the driving performance you hear in some other reviews. Otherwise, do not regret buying it and still having fun after one year.

Unfortunately the car is an automatic (my wife is the primary driver). On a trip the interior is adequate but interior storage is a bit confining. Seats are comfortable and visibility is excellent as is the parking maneuverability.
