Need help renting a Mini Cooper S in Boston

Hello all

I'm trying to find a place in Boston that rents Mini Cooper S'. It's part of my plan to propose to my girlfriend who loves the Mini Coopers. I think she'd get a kick out of driving a Mini more than if I got a 'boring' limo

I've tried to look around. Zipcar has them but they seem to be the vanilla Mini's not the Cooper S. I'd like to find a place that rents the S specifically, since my girlfriend seems to make a big fuss about that (she knows more about cars than me )! Bonus points if its a Cooper Works but I'm not holding my breath for something that esoteric.

Any help/suggestons would be greatly appreciated!

You've already found the only place.


If you were down south or out in Cali, Enterprise rents them, but not in New England. They're only good as rentals here for about 5 months out of the year....
And rental car companies don't get a break from BMW when purchasing their cars (one of the reasons MINI's hold their value so well) so it makes not a lot of sense for a rental company.

I should know, I work for one.

My wife told me I should get a mini cooper to go along with my mini dachshund, so I did.

Just buy the car instead of renting it.

If she'd rather the car instead of the ring she's a keeper
