Mini advice

[benny boy]

Hi guys I know theres is a few poeple on here that have had Mini's so I am looking for some advice.

Not sure weather to get a Cooper or a cooper S. I think I would be more happy with a Cooper S. So that would be a better buy.

My budjet is between 6/8 grand. So is there anything I should be aware of.

Thanks

Ben

they are awesome cars, great fun and amazing handling

go for a cooper S with the works engine kit.

Things to look for are power steering pumps and racks, the have a habit of failing, try to find out if they have been replaced, if out of warrenty you can get them done under good will if the car has full bmw history, also if it has the tlc pack can be pretty handy
