In their own words

It’s the first time I’ve owned a Mini, and I’m very impressed with the car, okay hasn’t much boot room, but is a quite a spacious little car.
Good points are lots, nice interior even though a lot of plastics, not bad for comfort either as I’ve driven all over with it. It’s sticks like glue to the road, plenty of pocket room, solid too, paint is in excellent condition for its age. Everything works on it well. The only things I had to do is replace exhaust (nice and simple) and replace condenser (quite easy to do). The only downside to the little rocket is the dash rattles (but I’m getting on top of them). Very little room under the bonnet to do anything major (but standard things are easy). And parts can be a little pricey compared to say Fords. But all in all they are a great car and worth the price (not like Parker’s predict £300 - 600. Like to see anyone get a good working version for that sought of money.
If you want a good solid little car for a good price with 4 wheel discs and not overdone with stupid little gadgets that go wrong and don’t work and will cost a fortune to replace, this car is for you. My score would be 8/10.
