The 2008 MINI Cooper, explained

Here is the 2008 MINI Cooper, with its figures explained in plain words.

The numbers in plain words

The 1.6L 4-cylinder does the work, through a 6-speed manual. 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. It has a manual gearbox, so you need to be comfortable with a clutch.

Plan on about 22 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 7.4 L/100 km. In the city it is rated at 8.4 L/100 km, and on the highway 6.4. Expect about $12.95 per 100 km at our price setting. We count premium at $1.75 a litre for the cost figures on this page.

Road trips

Each car shows the kilometres included each day and the rate for extra ones. Trips outside Ontario need our written consent, agreed before you go. Return the car with the fuel it had at pickup, or a fee applies.

A good match for

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

The Cooper in everyday use

As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. For luggage, 170 litres means about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.

Getting this car from us

A request for your dates gets you an offer from a person. Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.

Requirements

You must be 18 or older and hold a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. Drivers below 26 pay a fee each day of the rental, and older drivers pay none. The card you pay with must be yours, and you bring it to the handover.

The CarmaCars Protection Plan is priced in your offer by car and driver age, as one of three options for damage to the car. Each car shows its deposit, and we take it about 1 hour before pickup. Each extra driver is checked the same way and signs the rental agreement.

From request to keys

Booking is by request, never instant. You send the car and the dates, and a person at CarmaCars reviews it. Our offer spells out the rate, the delivery fee if any, and the deposit. Approve it and the car is booked; decline it and nothing happens.

The car pages show each car's rates, deposit and kilometres included. Bookings run from one day up to 365 days at a time. Last-minute plans are fine with at least 2 hours of notice.

Next step

Send a request with your dates, and we will come back with an offer.

Not from our fleet right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. Meanwhile 6 similar cars are available below.

How much does fuel cost to drive the 2008 MINI Cooper 100 km?

About $12.95 for fuel, from the EPA combined rating of 7.4 L/100 km (1.6L 4-cylinder, front-wheel drive, 6-speed manual) at $1.75 a litre for premium. You return the car with the same fuel it had at pickup.

How old do I need to be to rent?

18 or older at pickup, with an Ontario G2 or G licence valid for the whole rental. Drivers aged 18 to 20 pay a young driver fee of $35 a day, and 21 to 25 pay $20 a day.

What coverage do I need?

Third-party liability is included in the rate. For damage to the car itself, have your own policy (OPCF 27), a credit card with rental car coverage, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan, priced in your offer by car and driver age. At $2,500 or more we claim on our fleet policy and you pay the $2,500 deductible.

Can the car be delivered?

Yes, anywhere, including Toronto Pearson International Airport and Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport. Delivery starts at $75 plus the distance from our location, priced in your offer. Collecting the car yourself is free.
