5 star review

My wife and I were initially looking for a bigger car, but once my wife saw the MINI and drove it, she just had to have it. With the sport button switched on, the MINI feels much faster than the figures suggest. It feels similar to a turbocharged MR2 that I used to own which had a 0-60 time of 5.2. What I like about the MINI is the fact that you can switch off the sport button and drive it like a normal car.My MR2 turbo felt like an out and out sports car. The MINI is smooth and comfortable and you feel like man and machine in perfect harmony. You feel ultimately in control when you drive the MINI.

5 star review

Had our Cooper S just 10 months from new. A fabulous fast, fun car that just looks the absolute business. Just revs and revs in all gears and puts a great smile on a driver’s face. 39mpg is very acceptable given the fun factor. Insurance is not a problem when shopping around but aged 60+ helps. A classic car that will outlast most others and repay in trade in value should we decide to trade it in for another MINI in the future. How sad is this, an hour or two before we know we are going out in MINI we just like to park it in front of the house, in the sun with the double sun roof ajar then just admire the little pepper white beast from indoors.
