Wifey wants a Mini. If we ever got one. It would have to be AWD.

Honestly the 3rd generation F56 mini cooper needs less maintenance compared to the earlier original mini’s as they are co developed by Chrysler.
Well that alone you know where Chrysler went compared to BMW. Recommend oil change is once a year or 10K miles but I’ll do 5K miles and cost $60 bucks for synthetic. Common failure is just about any car with wear and tear. Transmissions fluid is never flashed or changed as it is a sealed type transmission. Which kinda worries me. But based from my research this 3rd generation mini can ran 300K miles in normal driving operation. Of course things to check are brake pads, rotors, bmw breakable fisher price plastics and corroding rubber bushing! My mini has 98 months corrosion Warranty from factory. |

I have a 2005 mini conv, and in the 18 months I have owned it, just oil changes.
Now when I bought it I did change all the fluids / brakes and the normal type stuff.. It runs great, only think I don't like its an auto
