The 2008 MINI Cooper: Luup alternative
Here is the 2008 MINI Cooper from the angle of someone searching for Luup alternative. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
The figures, translated
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.
A combined rating of 7.4 L/100 km works out to about 22 litres per 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $12.95 to drive 100 km.
Who the Cooper suits
It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
How big it is
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.
