Ever since i first saw a mini cooper it has been the car i always wanted to drive and saw myself driving. Well, when it was time to get my first car, my dad bought me a 1997 ford ranger. I didn't mind it, but never really liked it. Now, 2 years later, I've got some money saved up and am once again obsessed with mini coopers. The problem is, I don't have very much money. By not much, I mean I am looking to purchase a used mini for around $6-$9 thousand. I want an s, but would settle for a normal cooper. Any year that is a newer style mini would be fine with me. So, the reason i came here is to get yall's opinions and advice. Do you think i could find something in this price range? or should i just forget my dream to have a mini.. for now?

I agree with you as far as not settling for non S Cooper. You can use your money you have saved so far for a down payment and make a deal with a dealer to lower down your monthly payments and interest rate. Or you can keep on saving. Best of luck!
I would put a down payment on one, but my parents wont allow me to have car payments.. even though i'm 18. So, if i'm gonna buy a mini it has to be outright. Which really sucks haha

Your parents are right on but at the same time tell them that they should trust you enough with responsibility.
Want to own a mini cooper!
