Used MINI Hatch pros
A MINI Hatch oozes character, benefits from an instantly recognisable look and shape and is great fun to drive. These traits, coupled with its high-quality interior and wide range of excellent engines, really bolster its appeal as a used purchase.
Most buyers will find that the 1.5-litre Cooper fulfils most of their daily requirements, as it’s frugal and punchy-enough to tackle short slip roads with ease. If you’re a hot hatch fan, the regular Cooper S is great fun to drive but – if you want the fastest MINI going – the JCW turns things up a notch, with 231hp and a fantastic exhaust note to encourage you even more.
The availability of a five-door model boosts the practicality of the Hatch too, although it’s still a dinky supermini, and an Audi A1 or Volkswagen Polo will prove to be more versatile options.
Used MINI Hatch cons
The ride can be quite firm if you’ve opted for big alloy wheels, so we’d advise sticking with standard wheels on whichever model you prefer, just to keep things as comfortable as possible. We’d also recommend thoroughly researching the options packs. While there is a lot of desirable kit available, there’s a lot to sift through and it’s easy to miss out on useful features. Quality is solid but there are still a few problem areas that need close attention paid to or repair bills will quickly add up.
