Thinking of buying the 2017 MINI Cooper?
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2017 MINI Cooper for sale by us right now. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Before buying the 2017 MINI Cooper, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
What the specs mean
Its powertrain is the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Combined fuel use is 7.5 L/100 km: about 23 litres for 300 km. Expect about $13.13 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
Living with the Cooper
As a small car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. For luggage, 255 litres means about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Rent it for a week first
A test week in the Cooper tells you more than any review. If the Cooper is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Choosing the right one
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$2,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $131.30 at our price setting.
Next step
A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.
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 2017 MINI Cooper from us first.
