Yep,
Generally happy with it, it isn`t the best car I`ve had (that was a Corrado VR6) but it isn`t the worst (Alfa Romeo GTV) but I`ve down sized and bought a cheaper car so I didn`t expect it to be as good as the £20,000 cars I`m used to.

Would I buy another? Yes, probably a Cooper S but it all depends on costs.

LMB,

Looks like there are a few people either:

a) unsure
b) dont have a MINI yet.

That's what MINI's have always been about isn't it?..

Mine's been back at the dealers for the last week and every time I get into the crappy Corsa I've been loaned, I like my MINI even more..

Just wish I could drive the damned thing!

Unhappy Yep

I am very happy with my mini one. I have had a few problems but the garage has been very good and has got them fixed now. All cars have a few faults at first, I am a car salesman and I see lots of cars coming back with more serious faults than I have had.

This is more like it

By the way could a moderator please check for me that I have only allowed people to have one vote.

I was playing around with it so am not sure if I remembered to change it.

Cheers

Despite having one or two problems with my car, which the dealer has sorted quickly and efficiently, I am very happy with it. The car does exactly what we bought it for, it is the first time I have ever paid cash for a car and we intend to keep it forever.
However it does seem that a lot of the regulars on the site do have some consistent problems and I would fully support them in their endeavours to ensure they are as happy with their cars as I am with mine.

Thanks for the response.

So far the majority of people are very happy with their car

Cool

I am feeling that positive vibe

I can't wait to get mine

It will look like this:

Talking YES, YES, YES

LMB, sorry to take so long to post my vote, but I was too busy having fun in my MINI!!!!!

1 week complete and I can feel the engine loosening-up now - just got back from a 170 mile trip with wife and son plus weekend luggage and Xmas pressies from the rellies. No problem. Sports seats (1/2 leather) suit me fine - no aches or pains after 2 1/2 hours.

Even limited to 4500rpm, and fully loaded with above clobber, the MINI can overtake cars safely and with plenty of vigour.

Cooper Chili - Silk Green & Black, Climate Contol, Heated Jets, ASC+T, Alarm

Arrived Nov 30 - Love it to bits
