  • MINI - Buying a used Mini 25 Mar 2009 (Forum)
    My main concern is depreciation as I want to sell the vehicle in 18 months time. My other question is whether Mini tend to 'take offers'? Can you barter them down on a used vehicle? I've heard that Mini salesman can be quite uncompromising.
  • New Mini - genuine provenance found! 9 May 2006 (Forum)
    Now that the 'New' Mini has been about for a few years it almost defines the 'Mini' look, so that when one does see an original 'real' Mini on the road it now looks tiny and quaint. I always thought of the new Mini as a bit of a pastiche and wondered what Sir Alec Issigonis would have thought of it.
  • MINI Cooper SD plus options - Lead times on new MINI 1 Oct 2014 (Forum)
    If you configure your own MINI, starting with a Cooper SD and add various options and packs,  what kind of lead time are you looking at these days?  If I ordered a car in October would I get it before XMAS?   Thanks

    We bought a mini a couple of weeks ago, but have only just realised it hasn't got a spare wheel. We bought it from a trader, so our question is - isn't he obliged to make sure there is a spare wheel in good condition there?

  • Mini - Suitability for Long journeys 28 Aug 2006 (Forum)
    My previous jazz vs note has now become a battle of head vs heart with the Mini strongly battling against the jazz. But I am warned that the Mini is not the car to sit in for any length of time for motorway journies. Come on you Mini lovers - help me convince my family that this will be the car for me!!!

  • Mini mum cover 14 Mar 2009 (Ask HJ)
    In a few months I'll be taking delivery of a restored 1987 Mini Mayfair. You may ask why, but it is intended to be a "fun" second car. There is also a...
  • Mini Cooper Convertible - Mini PCP 9 May 2010 (Forum)
    I am looking to purchase a Mini Cooper convertible using PCP. The Honest John's Best PCP Deals  does not appear to feature this model. I have not purchased a car through this type of finance model before, can anyone recommend a company that provides both a good service and value for money?

  • MINI - Mini 'FIRST' 18 Jul 2009 (Forum)
    Have you seen the new Mini 'FIRST'? (on HJ's home page). I've never understood the mass appeal of the Mini, mainly on account of it's price. However, this looks quite good at £11k and five years servicing at £185, 53 to the gallon, but what a shame it's only 75 h.p.
  • Would MINI been a success under Rover? 3 Oct 2006 (Forum)

    Hi A family member is selling her 2017 Mini Cooper, not trading in, not buying another car. Wondered what the best way to do this is, given the used car market at the moment? WeBuyanyCar/Cazoo seems to be offering  reasonable prices and it certainly avoids the hassle of selling privately on Autotrader or Gumtree.
