The 2015 MINI John Cooper Works: before you buy
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2015 MINI John Cooper Works for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 2015 MINI John Cooper Works, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
What to check on the John Cooper Works
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 1 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine; have those parts checked.
The figures, translated
It is powered by the 1.6L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Rated at 8.1 L/100 km combined, it needs around 24 litres for a 300 km round trip. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $14.18, and a 300 km weekend about $42.54. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,850 a year for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
How big it is
As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. EPA lists 170 litres of luggage space, enough for about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Try before you buy
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the John Cooper Works for a week and see how it fits your life. If the John Cooper Works is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Which one to look for
Within the 2015 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Running costs
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$2,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $141.80 at our price setting.
Questions first?
A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
Rent it for a week before you buy
