Reliability
Minis rust quicker than anything, but that comes with the name and legend.
Image
Loved by one and all, a cheeky little motor. Chicks seem to like them.

Not overly great. Built for the smaller person. Seats can be replaced for better driving position.

Not a lot of security at all on earlier models, But central locking and immobilisers are cheap.
