I'm in the market for a used mini. Mellow Yellow or Liquid Yellow look so cool. Any one have a mini? Let me know how you like it. Any dislikes? Thanks.
I have one. I love love love it. Mine is a convertible and actually the second MINI I have owned. Lots of fun to drive. I don't like big vehicles at all, and the MINIs are stylish and sporty.
There are quirks - dash rattles are common, and rear seat room is extremely limited. But I cannot see myself driving anything else. Even if I had more money - I'd just buy a newer JCW convertible.
I own a Mellow Yellow Clubman with a black roof and black racing stripes. It also has the checkered applique on the door handles and rear view mirrors. i don't think they are painting any yellow cars currently.
To tell the truth, I wasn't crazy about the color when I first bought it, but the car had all the other options I wanted. I especially enjoy the twin sun roofs. I've only owned the car since last August, and so far, it's been everything I expected. The Clubman is a sports car you can haul a lot of junk in, and has a longer wheelbase than a coupe, which makes for a slightly smoother ride. But it handles just as quickly as a coupe.
And I decided the yellow was a good color for the car. The Clubman isn't as small as it appears to be- side by side with most compacts, it's about the same size, but sits quite a bit lower. The yellow/black combo on mine makes it very visible and noticeable in traffic, so it's quite good, and I'm getting used to it now.
I think yellow is an excellent color for Mini Cooper.
I know three people who own Minis. 1 of the 3 has been a maintenance nightmare. Towed to the dealer three times, at least under warranty. The other two have been OK.
Huge MINI fan here, I have a black 2012 MCS with the John Cooper Works tuning kit, suspension, wheels, and aero kit. The fun-to-drive factor is simply unmatched. I can't speak highly enough about it. I wouldn't trade it for a car that cost twice as much!
