• Is now a good time to buy a 3 year old MINI Cooper 8 Sep 2008 (Forum)
  As the title really. The wife wants a MINI again and looking at 3ish years old. We have had one before and wont be making the mistake of getting one without aircon and leather as it was a nightmare to get a good trade price for it. Am a bit concerned that the MINI bubble may burst with the financial panic going on at the minute and as we are looking to keep it only 2 years or so, residual value is important.

• Polo, Mini or Jazz? 1 Mar 2021 (Forum)

• Mini One convertible 2011 1.6 petrol - Which auto box? 28 Jun 2024 (Forum)
  There seems to be a conspiracy to conceal information concerning which Mini has which auto box. I have been trying to find out whether a 2011 Mini One Convertible (1.6 petrol) has the CVT transmission which was so bad that it gave rise to legal action by owners. I've identified a car I might be interested in, but my interest would cease if it had the problematic auto box.
