    Good Points: Got a black mini one 2002 plate a few weeks ago and I'm absolutely loving it!! After learning to drive in a mini I just had to have one!! For my personal use I find it very practical as it's normally just me and a passenger. Only being small my self, I find the leg room in the back acceptable but wouldn't suggest someone tall sits in the back.


    Bad Points: I do admit that the mini isn't practical for everyone's uses, especially families. I also find the clutch to be quite stiff as well and getting into reverse is annoying when its cold as another reviewer mentioned. I personally don't see the boot space as a problem as I don't really require a lot of room but I can imagine it's not going to be acceptable to many people who need the space.


    General comments: I find the mini One 1.6 16v very nippy and fun to drive I would highly recommend it to someone without a young family. I did find a crack in the windscreen that had apparently been there for sometime according to the window repair guy. But thats no fault of BMW and I have no major faults with the car.

    Ignore claims that the car is too heavy - in my opinion the weight does the car a favour because it's pretty powerful and it needs to be held down somehow!

    I test drove a Peugeot 206, a Honda Civic and then the Mini One 1.6 16v, and I snapped the hand off the dealer afterwards. I've got to be honest, I really wanted that Civic but it was too expensive for me. The Mini is just about in everyone's reach and I must say that you'll be glad you invested that tiny bit more because the Mini is worth ...

    Bought a Mini One, new (sept 02), with a bunch of extras... alloys, 6x CD changer. fog lamps etc.
    Although a little pricey.... everthing just oozes quality. Engine is very quiet and smooth, doors clunk shut like big bmw's.

    One problem.. no room for a spare wheel.. i had a cut tyre and it was too big for the repair kit ( bottle of foam & a small compressor ) to handle. Had to be towed to dealership for repair.

    If you want power then go for the Cooper or Cooper S model... i will definatley ...
