2006 MINI Cooper Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

The Mini Cooper is great on gas. It is very fast when you need it to be. It is even better on gas on the highway. And you can park a Mini Cooper anywhere because it is so small. So if you travel around a lot then a Mini is where it is at...

Small, fast, good mileage, stylish, fun, cute, little maintenance needed, has manual transmission, good price for value. It is comfortable, has all the room I need, is a hatchback, dash is attractive, has all the features I want and need. And it is VERY safe.

Fun to drive, handles very well with little body roll, has all the amenities that I wanted including leather, sunroof, can seat 4 people and has decent gas mileage. For being a little car it still goes pretty fast.

My mini is very compact so it is great for parking in small spaces or navigating large cities. If you put the back seats down you can fit almost anything in the back including a bike. It has also been a very reliable vehicle.

The only con to the vehicle itself is the storage space. Like for shopping at the grocery store. You have five seats that you can ride comfortably. But if you go grocery shopping you have to fill up the seats because of the trunk space. It is about one foot by three feet by two foot deep...

There are no cons with my MINI Cooper. It is dependable, reliable, fun, easy to maintain, catches people's eye, has all the features I need and want, just enough storage space for me, is fast and fun to drive, has a manual transmission.

Very poor ride quality. The vehicle has run flat tires so the ride is too hard and the replacement for them are really expensive. Also there is no dealer in my city so we have to take it 3 hours away for the nearest dealer and repairs are expensive.

It is not a good vehicle if you regularly have passengers because the back seat is so small and hard to climb in unless you are small. In addition to small passenger space there is also the high cost of maintenance and repairs compounded by expensive parts.
