Born on 1/16/02. I admit I was very leary of buying a 1st year production DEMO, but it's turned out to be a great car. I was on the waiting list for months before the dealer opened but was still looking at about a year to get one. I took a chance on this low serial number car and I'm glad I did. No major issues, just a couple of small ones readily fixed by the dealer. I wonder how the low serial number will play into the value of the car as the years go by.

Congrats on so many years of motoring.

By that build date you must have one of the first cars in the U.S.

Cheers,

Very, very cool! Congratulations and thanks for the long-term reliability report!

 

Great and how many miles have you motored in 5 years?

 

Only 58k. I use my BMW R1100RS bike as often as I can to keep the miles low. Darn good car, no regrets.

More proof that the MINI is a great choice for transportation. Congratulations on your 5 year anniversary.
