MINI 2001 Hatchback

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

This Mini is the best car ever to own , I’ve always serviced right .
177,000 miles now , original clutch still good .
Never failed to start , or stop .
Changed oils, engine / gearbox always good quality . Engine is sweet , and gearbox .
No doubt the best small car I’ve ever owned.
A great little Diesel

How reliable do you find the car?

I can’t get this touch thing to work , so cut to the chase . This car has been truly brilliant, it’s never had a Clutch yet , and it’s done over 176, 000 miles .
Only two bulbs ever bee. Changed ,
Still same fuel injectors.
The one thing has had is oil changes every 7000 mile
Gearbox oil change every 30,000 miles ..
Never failed to start …
Even the air conditioning still works , no leaks . , two top ups!!! In it life .
