2006 MINI Cooper S consumer reviews

I've been after this car since 2002 not disappointed at all, I call it my six speed supercharged roller skate, handles like it's on rails

Great economical car, and fun fun to drive. Also it is very roomy, Great stereo, with panoramic sunroof which is awesome on the sunny day

It's not slow by any means but I wouldn't call it quick either. It's great fun though. It made me smile almost the whole time. The styling is great and the interior is much more practical than I expected. The manual transmission wasn't the best I've ever used, but once you get use to it's weight and spacing, you can hustle it pretty good. I can't wait to find the perfect car.

Loads of attitude-Mini is very well maintained and in great shape. Brand new brakes and oil change, plus I am her original owner with all of her service records. She gets 27-32 mpg.

I LOVE everything about this car! Not only does is look amazing, and handle like a go-cart, but it gets incredible gas mileage too! And since it was the last year of the first generation Mini's it is really reliable!

Anyone who has one knows that this car is too fun. Lots of horsepower. Easily upgraded. It has its quarks but you still love it.

The R53 era of MINI is a blast to drive. The screaming supercharger whine, go kart handling, and power to weight of a MINI makes this model my favorite by far. I've owned and driven all models of MINI's and every time I get in my R53 Cooper S JCW, I'm blown away.

This car is loaded with standard and optional features. Exciting to drive through the mountains at the National Parks or a day trip near your home town. Amazed at the power and speed the 4 cylinder Supercharged engine puts out. I can park in small places most others can not. 32 miles per gallon is what I average. Test drive a Minni Cooper and it will put a smile on your face!

The Cooper S is extremely fast and handles like it's on rails. Interior comfort for 2 is excellent, even for a bigger guy like myself. Recommend you buy new or used w/warranty if you're faint of heart on repairs, as costs of ownership escalate as the cars age. A great summer car for big fun or a lovable all around vehicle someone who can commit to cost of ownership.

Overpriced, overrated, unreliable, very expensive to fix, other thing the AC sucks , leaving you hot and sweaty with and sr back and sore butt
