Auto loans: the 2011 MINI John Cooper Works
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2011 MINI John Cooper Works for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. For anyone shopping for the 2011 MINI John Cooper Works, here are the facts that matter.
A buyer's checks
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Reading the spec sheet
The 1.6L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
By the EPA's combined rating of 8.5 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 26 litres. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $148.80. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,950 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
When the John Cooper Works makes sense
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Space, size and seats
As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. At 170 litres, the trunk fits about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
A longer test drive
Rent the John Cooper Works for a week and see how it fits your life. A week with the John Cooper Works answers more than any brochure. 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
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $148.80 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.88 in fuel.
