The 2009 MINI Cooper: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2009 MINI Cooper; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. This page sets out the 2009 MINI Cooper for buyers, in plain words.
A buyer's checks
NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the figures tell you
Power: the 1.6L 4-cylinder; drive: front-wheel drive. 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.
A combined rating of 7.4 L/100 km works out to about 22 litres per 300 km. That works out to about $12.95 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,550 a year for 15,000 miles.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Size and space
As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. The EPA lists 170 litres for luggage, roughly about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Rent it for a week first
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the Cooper first, and buy only if it fits your life. A week with the Cooper answers more than any brochure.
Narrowing it down
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2009 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Money matters
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $129.50 at our price setting.
Ready when you are
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2009 MINI Cooper from us first.
