Autoweek updates their 2003 MINI Cooper S longterm test...
Autoweek Online has recently updated their longterm test of their 2003 MINI Cooper S. There are no big suprises in the article, but they did say "there may be no better indicator of how impressed we are with a long-term car than when we start investigating the possibility of making it a permanent part of our lives. Our Mini Cooper S, in its third quarter, has us thinking that way, daring to contemplate “till death do us part...”".
They also mentioned the little 'secret' that many non-MINI owners cannot comprehend. That once you put the back seats down, you can pack quite a bit in that little car. " It swallows a mountain of stuff in back—crates of soft drinks and other bulk foodstuffs—yet remains one of the most easy-to-park vehicles we’ve ever driven (can you say both of an SUV?)".
And their continued love for it just remided me of this blog entry over at dbmini.us. Every time I sit in my MINI, drive my it, or even just look at it, I still feel like that day when I picked it up from the dealership over a year and a half ago...
