Default Thinking about buying a Mini. Any advice?

Hello all-

I'm looking at possibly purchasing a low mileage 2003-2005 Mini S model and I'm looking for some advice on what to look for problem wise. I've done some research and have seen problems regarding water pumps, roof seals, transmissons, etc. I'm thinking this should be a good option for a very unique commuter ca with both power and great mileage.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Definitely a good choice for a daily cummute I'd say.. I recently purchased a 05 Cooper S myself and I am very satisfied.. as far as mechanical issues, take care of the car and it will take care of you.. Good luck!
