The 2013 MINI Cooper: before you buy

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2013 MINI Cooper for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. Before you buy the 2013 MINI Cooper, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

Before you sign for the Cooper

There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Owners filed 75 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, air bags and engine; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

What the specs mean

Its 1.6L 4-cylinder drives through a 6-speed manual. 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.

It is rated at 7.7 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 23 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $13.48 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,650 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

What the Cooper is like

As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. Luggage space is 170 litres, enough for about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.

Good uses for the Cooper

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Try before you buy

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the Cooper for a week and see how it fits your life. Drive the Cooper on your commute before you commit to it.

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 $134.80 at our price setting.

Choosing the right one

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Within the 2013 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.

Let us know

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

Rent it for a week before you buy
