2010 MINI Cooper Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

It's very reliable, and has great gas mileage, and can easily be parked anywhere. In the 20 years it's been alive I have only had to replace the battery once. It's basically a 2 seater but you can fit 4 people in comfortably. So it's a great first car for your kids if you worry about them wanting to drive a bunch of kids around.

The pros of driving a mini cooper base include easy parking at all times, whether in the country, suburb, or city. It also has easy handling and it is easy to drive. The gas for the car is affordable since the miles per gallon are fair, and you can drive over 400 miles with a tank.

Not many blind spots, still runs very well. It has enough space for just me because I am the only one who drives it usually. It also has lots of compartments to hold your stuff and papers in as well as plays CDs and has an aux cord.

Some of the cons are that this car wants you to buy premium gas which can get pretty pricey at times but the gas can only holds about 13 gallons. The car is also known to be an oil guzzler so you need to regularly check and fill up or top off the oil.

The cons of owning a mini cooper base include the deterioration after a few years use. I experienced stalling issues after filling up the gas tank at around year 5. Now after 10 years, the gas goes through oil very quickly and while it is not difficult, it does require me to top the oil every few weeks. There are many small things that have broken in the car that are very expensive to fix since the car is small.

It does not hold a lot of my belongings, or people. And the people sitting in the back do not have much leg room. It is only two door which can make it difficult to allow people to get in and out of the car.
