About the 2012 MINI Cooper
This page looks at the 2012 MINI Cooper for anyone searching for convertible rental.
What the figures tell you
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.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 23 litres, from its 7.6 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, it costs about $13.30 to drive 100 km.
Room inside
As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. The EPA measures its luggage space at 170 litres, roughly about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Who the Cooper suits
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Getting the car booked
The first step is a free request: which car, which dates, and how you want to get it. Then we send an offer. The offer shows the price before 13% HST and the deposit. Offers stay open for 24 hours. Approve one and pay to book the car.
Each car shows its own extra kilometre rate, so nothing surprises you later. The longer the booking, the lower the rate a day tends to be. The shortest notice we accept before a pickup is 2 hours.
What we check
Renters must be at least 18 and hold an Ontario G2 or G licence. Under 26? You can rent, with a daily young driver fee shown on the car's page. You show your original licence and your card when we hand you the keys.
Liability to other people is included in every rate. For the car itself, pick your own policy (OPCF 27), a card with rental car benefits, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. We take the deposit shortly before pickup and return it after the car comes back. Everyone who will drive signs the agreement after the licence check.
