2000 Rover - Austin Mini Cooper Sport review from UK and Ireland
"A timeless classic - it can't be beat !!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Crunching reverse gear.
Lumpy tick-over.
Loose suspension fixings.
Jammed throttle pedal.
Inaccurate fuel gauge.
Wide wheels tramline.
Corrosion on brightwork.
Dealer apathy.
General comments?
Despite early teething problems, fantastic car. Love it.
Last of line model with lots of extra bits - leather seats, ally dash, sports-pack arches, big exhaust, etc.
Gets admiring looks from all ages.
People always coming up to talk to me and look at the car.
Genuine fun - can't stop smiling!!
Other Mini drivers flash their lights to say hello.
100% free of BMW parts.
Get a life - get a Mini.
