Car service: the 2012 MINI Cooper
If you need a car with a driver, the 2012 MINI Cooper is one option; this page explains the car and how booking works. Chauffeur bookings are by the hour, two hours minimum; send a request and we reply with the vehicle we can offer and the price.
Under the hood
The 1.6L 4-cylinder 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 7.6 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 23 litres. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $13.30 at our price setting.
Living with the Cooper
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.
Who it is for
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Our Cooper cars
Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Before pickup
You must be 18 or older and hold a valid Ontario G2 or G licence. There is no maximum age. Drivers under 26 pay a young driver fee each day. A card in your name pays for the rental, and we see it with your licence at pickup.
Every rate includes third-party liability. The car itself needs one of three options: OPCF 27, a card benefit, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Your deposit is held for the rental and released after the car comes back and is checked. We check every driver; it takes a few minutes and protects everyone.
How to book
Send the request with your dates first; no money changes hands at that stage. We review it and reply with an offer that shows the whole price, delivery included when you asked for it. When you approve the offer and pay, the car is booked for you.
Each car's calendar shows the days it is already booked. A single booking can run up to 365 days. For longer, it renews month after month. With 2 hours of notice or more, a same-day pickup can work when the car is free.
