Why do you think of these "Mini Coopers"
 

I see em all over here now , but it looks like a death trap if you get into a accident,

Cute car but i dont know about it being safe.,...

Anyone own one?

I don't know about crash test data but they are bigger inside then they look from the outside.

Not enough horsepower to ever make it up my driveway, so no, I don't have one. :winkwink:

car for gay people.

my buddy's got one... and they're not bigger inside than they look from the outside. I can't fit in the passenger seat and I'm 6'2"

juicy,
you need to learn the difference between when, where, why and how.

the mini coopers have a bunch of safety crap in them so that they arent death traps but they are probably more dangerous than driving a car.

the sports ones are pretty fun to drive casue they are fast.

Well, to ME they were bigger inside - then again, I'm just 5 feet tall :thumbsup

I think they are sweet. Pretty cool.. You have to buy a pair of em though..

Just like a 17 year old gal, I dont think id ever buy one, but I like to look at em. Not sure Id ever put myself in the situation to go inside one.

Although it would be fun.

The S variation packs almost 170 HP into that tiny little body. They've even got a Rally Edition with a more rugged suspension and a few extra ponies.

true but still i would feell safer in a bigger type car god forbid I get into a accident

loll

I think it looks like more of a secondary type "fun" car for most people rather than a primary car

so thats what it is with you.. little dick syndrom

now i get it

The new convertibles are nice too.

Remember...it's a little BMW...that's got to amount for something. :Graucho

someone needs to post the pic of the destroyed hummer - these Minis are quite safe, no need to worry. Lots of them over here. it's not my style but they're good cars.

They are alright, I drove one one time, the one I drove sucked going over bumps and stuff.

The seats move up down and back and forth, for the taller people adjust the seat to sit way down into the car, almost all the way to the floor.

I have a very little dick - some might even call it a clitoris, I know I do :)

I have big tits though. :thumbsup

I've got an 04' CooperS. I'm 6' tall and it's very comfortable.The car handles like it's on rails..it has brakes that will toss you through the windshield if you don't have your seatbelt on.The safety aspect is relative.If you hit a semi in a hummer you're probably just as dead as if you would hit an SUV with the Cooper.But handling is the key...i would much prefer to avoid a collision than to survive it.
I bought the Cooper for a track car..and it delivers.

Sweet car, i loved those in 'italian job'

yup, I would love to have a convertible for the summer!:thumbsup

With 170 and front wheel drive, it might actually make it up :)

they are very good for parking

id it it, with a h1

kinda like a fat chick and a moped... fun to ride.. but don't let your friends catch you on it :Graucho

:321GFY
mini cooper s works kicks ass
have u ever ride in such one heh?

The cooper S kicks ass.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

They are a wee bit juicy :Graucho

I don't like the new ones...I like the original ones which I've seen all over Europe...:thumbsup

I agree :glugglug

mini coopers are pretty nice............if your using it for a golf cart:thumbsup

I used to drive an old Mini Cooper, much smaller than this model.
I cant tell you much about this version, but the old mini cooper was great to drive in big cities, and easy to park. Very small so they dont take up much room. They were very poular with the Japs.

My SUV bumper is strategically mounted at the perfect height and angle to put dents in those things.

I bet a shopping cart going about 10 mph in a parking lot would do a world of damage. Will let you know. :Graucho

...its more or less like a gokart...:1orglaugh

I think that's what a lot of people around here are doing with them. We have two cars even though I rarely drive anywhere off the island and my husband doesn't drive to work (bus and ferry). We have a truck for hauling and for camping, etc. I have a small car that we both drive around the island. It's great on gas and easy to park in small spaces. I know lots of people here with a mini that love them. I'm not convinced I want one yet though. :)

I just bought one yesterday:winkwink: .. Very safe car, very fast too


:thumbsup :thumbsup

a friend of mine died lastyear in one. 55 into a tree and the car was destroyed

Actually, I'm not very fond of it at all! :winkwink:

Nice toy but at 6-4, its not something I would think of buying or driving lol

Hmm, the car looks very light so I guess the thing can really take off if you floor it :glugglug

Why not? Someone upto 7 foot can fit in it(so the salesman said).

Looks like it too, i'm around 6-2 and I have plenty of room

PERFECT! LOL! :1orglaugh

LOL nice Aly :thumbsup

They hold the longest burn-out record of 127 feet. It was in a streetcar magazine i was looking at a few weeks ago. They tested it with 15 other cars I think.

way too expensive for what they are :2 cents:

Definitly NOT a cool car ... way too small ... I wouldn't like to have that car . I'd take a 1990 civic over this

Not even in the same boat:

...More of a dinghy, really.

That settles it...Dr.Dre says it's not cool...i better sell it!

The Mini has a Euro NCAP score of 4 stars - the same as a Honda Civic.
