May buy a Mini, have some questions, any help would be appreciated.
I've been wanting a Mini for awhile, looked at several used S models over the last several months and now I think I'm ready to buy. I've searched on here a lot for information and other things.
The car I have narrowed it down to is a 2005 S hardtop with 30k, red, I've attached photos of it at the dealer after my test drive.
What wheels are these, I usually see the big spoked wheels vs. these.
It drives fine, rather rattly and you feel every bump, I'm assuming this is the way they are. At 30k, suspension should be fine. Should the brakes/rotors be good for awhile?
Clutch, tranny?
Are there any things to look for when buying a used Mini S? It's a 1-owner car.
I just want to see if there are any issues from that year/era that I should look for before I decide what I want to do.
I'm trading in my 2009 Scion xD on it and seem to be getting a good deal. A difference of $850 plus tax for the Mini.
Thanks.
