MINI Hatchback (2006 - 2013) 1.6 D Cooper (08/10 on) 3d Owner Review

I have wanted a MINI for years but went though the process of owning and driving a real variety of cars from MGF's to 4x4's. By far this is the most fun to drive and apart from the Jag XF I owned until recently, has brought the biggest smile to my face. Small, nimble, fun, fast, kart like - you name it is a blast. Brilliant MPG, £0 tax, cheap to service and run. What's not to like (the ride, maybe...but all part of the fun). Small boot, yes, but the rear seats fold (completely) flat. Plenty of room in the front, bit tight in the rear. Quality overall is excellent. You can change the interior (mood) lighting, and when the doors open they show a MINI emblem on the floor - bet you car hasn't got that feature (unless its a MINI obviously). My wife and Mom, love it, and no, I am not letting them drive it. Go buy one, you will love it (if you love driving).
