Mini Cooper S on 2040-cars
Burlington, Vermont, United States
|
I have a 2003 Mini Cooper S with 75k miles on it. I got the car last August but have realized that it just doesn't fit with my lifestyle...mountain biking, skiing...not enough room in the car.
It is such a fun car to drive, especially when you realize it is still getting 30 mpg driving around town. The engine has had some work done on it. A new time chain assembly was installed in November. It runs extremely well. The engine is supercharged, which makes driving that much more fun. The rear brake pads and rotors were also replace in November. I am the third owner and have treated it very well. Full synthetic oil, 93 octane gas only. Its a great car! The car comes with a set of winter tires mounted onto steel rims as well. Summer tires have about 70% tread left and the winter tires about the same. Easily can get another two years out of them. Will accommodate any reasonable car pick-up needs. 6 Speed Manual Full Leather Interior Heated Seats Xenon Self Leveling Headlights Climate Control |

Mini knows how you take your coffee after a test drive
Thu, 11 Oct 2012Mini Netherlands wanted to give its countrymen a good reason to test drive its cars, so it threw in a free cup of coffee with the spin - but not just any old cuppa joe. Cars were fitted with a sensor that analyzed the driver's style. The chip was then placed in a special coffeemaker that produced a blend to match the driving; middle-of-the-road test pilots would get a lungo (long) coffee, test-the-rollcage types were given a ristretto (short, and stronger).
The knock on the head for U.S. drivers? Milquetoast test drivers were given an Americano - a watered-down espresso. You can watch the unique promotion at work in the video below.
2014 Mini John Cooper Works GP
Fri, 16 Nov 2012About three weeks prior to this brief yet balls-to-the-wall drive on the Spanish island of Mallorca, I saw that Mini USA announced pricing for the keenly anticipated Mini John Copper Works GP. And that number would be - *a-hem* - $39,950 for starters.
I am always intent upon finding the pinnacle of what a certain car promises me, and almost at any cost. Almost. When I think "steaming hatchback," I think of something exactly like this Mini GP, and the steep price doesn't squelch my pleasure. They're only building 2,000 of them anyway, and the units coming to the US will start arriving in owners' hands on March 16 of next year. These buyers will be extremely happy and remorse-free.
Five scorched laps at the very Mini-perfect Circuito Mallorca RennArena showed me all.

To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
