I had two Minis (2003 & 2015). I maintained mine and had very few problems given the miles I put on them. Their engines were great. No turbo problems either. Main issue is it’s a small car and crappy roads beat the suspension to death. They are so fun to drive.

I have one of these and it's so amazing. I drove the Memphis freeway at rush hour on a Friday afternoon, just bobbing and weaving through traffic, effortlessly. The paddle shifters work really well, the car is always planted and the faster you go the more she ikes it. It sticks to the road, the steering is direct and tight. It's perfectly planted and composed at 110+ mph. Whoever designed the aerodynamics on this car really did an amazing job. And if you put it in green mode you'll get 45 mpg on the highway!

The best advice Scotty has ever given is to change your oils regularly. Forget the manufacturers service schedules, they are designed to make their cars appear cheaper to maintain. I change the engine oil and filter twice a year and the air filter every year on my Fiesta, costs about £50 a year for the lot doing it myself. Car runs like a dream with 242,000 miles on the clock

I'm still driving a 2003 Toyota Camry LE that now has a little over 193,000 miles on it. Even though that car was handed down to me from my older brother, I still try to maintain it as best as I can. That Mini Cooper looks great I'll say that but cars like that can become endless money pits if you don't keep up with the proper maintenance. I mean any car can have serious issues like mine when for example one of my break calipers froze so bad I wasn't able to get it to move. Hints why I had to call a tow truck to tow it to my house until it got fixed which it did eventually get fixed.

As a mechanic I wasn’t fond of these particularly the earlier 2000s Mini. I had to do an idler pulley on a base model 2016 Mini with a 3cyl engine and I was stumped on how amazing it drove. It had more get up and go than most turbo 4’s I’ve driven and was surprisingly refined. I once owned a MK6 Golf GTI and this base Mini actually drove better.

I remember reading your posts about why you should never buy a Mini. I have a 2008 Clubman S 6-speed manual, with 110k on it. With the barn doors and fold-down seats, I can haul an amazing amount of stuff. Only problem I've had with it is a water pump replacement, and one coil pack that went bad. Still runs and shifts great. Everything still works on it, burns very little oil, and the A/C is ice cold. Gets about 34mpg driving normally, sure I could get better if I tried. Has plenty of power, and handles like a go-cart, like you said. I've had it up to 125 and it wasn't even breathing hard. My biggest complaint is that you can only get a replacement keyfob at a MINI dealer, the closest of which is 200 miles from me. Even my local BMW dealer won't do it. And the keys are ridiculously expensive.

I absolutely love my MINI's! Have two R53'S one bone stock, other... Became hooked after test driving my first one was surprised how much it felt like a go-kart. Requires more maintenance than a Toyota for sure, but both running strong with over 150k miles each. If you get a R56 change the timing chain tensioner immediately. The original one fail around 110k and motor go bye bye.

The original mini cooper S was total fun machine. The engine 1269 cubic inches reved out to 8000 rpm. The motor had long bor stroke, the motor came out with dome pistons. If you changed the pistons to flat tops and shaved the head 3000 of an inch with twin 1/2inch SU carberettors and give a dyno tune this car would scream easy keep up with a V8.

Great Scotty. Greetings from England. Love the references you put in. I've owned about 6 original Minis and wish I still had them now. Even wrecks are going for crazy money. I personally wouldn't touch a BMW mini with a barge pole. Each to their own I guess. Expensive to buy and maintain not forgetting their over the top complexity.

@@larrynunnery7914 😂 I actually like the postion he had in this video. That European cars are ok cars if they are taken care because from my experience with seeing friends and family maintaining their VWs, if they are maintained religiously they easily last 200k. But I don't expect 300-400k that can be reached easily by Toyotas and Hondas. There are certainly better cars for long life but I like the fun factor of European cars.

Scotty Kilmer, another great video! Please keep up the great work! And I think that's the case with alot of vehicles. If the owner would just maintain them properly and not beat the hell out of them the way some people drive, alot of cars will hold up for a long time. Of course there's always the exceptions like Chrysler and GM cars, but even they would probably hold up much better if properly cared for!

I appreciate the Mini Cooper car, but I'd rather find a vehicle that would replace my 2000 Chevrolet Venture (that failed NYS annual inspection due to "frame was too rusty"). The Venture with rear rows of seats removed was cavernous to use for projects like a enclosed pickup truck. I shared your videos with my (grown) sons to ensure that they receive your tutelage, otherwise the mechanical aptitude may indeed skip their generation. I do like Goo Gone products. My dad was an adhesives (polymer) engineer for 27 years at IBM and "could fix anything - except a broken heart!" I learned alot from him too.
