We've seen lots of these reports over the past year but I thought I'd post another this morning. This one comes from Sean Bartnik, author of many a How To and a long time member of the MINI community:

“Overall it's been a great year+ of MINI ownership. I still enjoy driving the car — it's handling and size really makes it a lot of fun to drive, even after more than a year. I would definitely buy the MINI again — I've been very happy with it. I plan to keep this car for a long time. In terms of driving enjoyment, build quality and feature content for the price, I think it's hard to beat the MINI.”

It's nice to read something positive like this after seeing the occasional complaining on forums about issues here and there. I think it's easy to see those posts and believe everyone is having the same problems when that's usually not that case.

BTW my own two year report is coming up in two months – hard to believe!
