2010 MINI Cooper Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I have the 50th anniversary Mayfair edition, Hot Chocolate with toffee leather interior and stripes/trim, 6 speed manual, 17" wheels, rally lights, heated seats, bluetooth etc.. If you have never driven a Cooper you would be surprized at the interior space. I am 6' tall and have trouble getting in and out of many small or low cars, but not this one. You'd think you were in a larger car. The best thing about this car is the handling, almost too much fun on back roads. Some are turned off by the higher prices of these cars compared to other small economy cars but you get what you pay for. Mini's out class any of the comperable small cars in terms of style and performance. Truly unique.

A blast to drive! When you own a MINI, you can't wait for the next curve. A lot of power in this JCW, the car feels very quick especially with the extra boost (sport mode). The other major improvement of the JCW over the regular Cooper S is the breaks, they are very powerful. Superb handling, great engine and breaking power....a little go kart just like we want a MINI to be.

So far, it has exceeded my expectations. I’m averaging 39mpg mixed use driving (44hwy). The fit and finish is better than I expected. For such a small car, the cockpit and front passenger areas are spacious. I’m 6’1” and have no complaints about getting in and out. It’s quick, handles well and has enough features to get by, even in the base model.

Personally I havent had any mechanical problems at all. Maybe Im just lucky but I love these cars! Theyre just the right size for me and peppy, fun to drive and a big plus, great on gas!!

My mini feels much larger inside than anticipated and has great "get-up-and-go." Tons of fun to drive, especially on long road trips. Economical gas mileage is expected in a small car, but usually not in cars that are this fun to drive.

Even though it is 4-person vehicle, only very small people and animals can reasonable sit in the back seats if the driver/front passenger are tall. Shorter people up front allow for backseat passengers. However, 1-2 people will always love driving and riding in this car. Would not suggest test-driving this prior to driving a MINI Base, because once you experience the power/speed of the S, it's tough to want anything else.

It has a quality thick hull and has a lot of room in the front seats, as well as comfortable. My husband says it is peppy little car. Gas mileage is great.

It is a very nice small car. Giving much fun to driving it. It very nice and precise turn. BMW style. Very beautiful car, high fuel efficiency. Hate to see it go, but I need to due to the job. Recommend!

I really love how practical it is. Maintenance is pretty cheap for most things, and it's great on gas mileage. It's really fun to drive, and unfortunately that has gotten me into some trouble with the law. Since I've put new tires on it, it rides much smoother and can take a turn and get off the line much quicker. Great car overall!!

everything is nice except the rims i'm gonna change it soon, acceleration is amazing, handling is more than great, brakes are really good, i didn't experience any problems yet, looks attractive and anyone sees it likes to try it, wow
