Agree. One of the 'problems' with my MINI was a burned out headlight. Yes, it was a reported 'problem', but one that was fixed for free and not a big deal. I don't feel that makes my car unreliable!
I wanted to add - I bought the MINI because it is fun! Reliability really wasn't a top priority for me.
You like it. That's all it matters. I just stated the truth its unreliable and freakin' ugly to me.
Mini sales have been exploding.I know a dealership that sold a little over 100 cars last month,all cars coming in are presold.Fuel prices have been the biggest reason for this.
One car line's hurt (Chevy,Hummer,Ford ect,) is another car line's gain.
The prices hold up nicely, too: I bought my 2005 Mini Cooper S in 2006 (7k miles) for $20,000 and it's still worth exactly that, 2+ years later. Not many cars hold value like that.
Yep. If we all liked/drove the same car the world would be a boring place.
I have never gotten so many positive attention/comments/questions about any other car I've driven than I have gotten with the MINI. Sometimes I feel like a rockstar driving it!
I got my MINI the end of May and I must say that I am in love with her. In my opinion there is no car on the market that blends sporty, fun, and fuel economy together better than a MINI.
I also agree that you do get tons of attention while you drive it. I've been asked so many questions at the gas stations by people driving everything from family sedans/SUVs to huge pickups to even fancy sports cars.
LOL i agree with all the attention!! i bought mine in '05 and lived in upstate NY where the nearest mini dealer was 2.5 hours away. noone in my area had ever even heard of them so i couldnt go ANYWHERE without people checking out the car and stopping to ask questions.
i felt famous LOL!
u definitely are seeing them quite a bit more now.
