Overview & Reviews
For 2012, the Mini Cooper offers the "Mini Yours" series of high-end customization options. A leather-covered dashboard, unique wheels and leather upholstery with contrasting striping and piping are among those optional highlights. A few more standard features, such as an aero kit for JCW versions and floor mats for all Coopers, round out the changes.
- Endearing retro styling
- Sharp handling
- Innovative convertible roof
- Excellent all-around performance in S and JCW trims
- Stellar fuel economy
- Highly customizable.
- Weak base stereo.
- Stiff and noisy ride
- Poor rearward visibility in convertible
- Lacks rear legroom

Never Again - 2012 Mini Cooper
By Stephen Schmidt - December 28 - 9:35 amNew timing chain 17,000 miles, Check Engine light on CONSTANTLY, new high pressure fuel pump 35000 miles. Out of warranty, with only 48000 miles, told it needs new engine $12,000. Maintenance kept to schedule. But MINI generosity, offered $1500 off new car (trade-in should be around $9,000). NEVER have I had a car that was this bad. Would give it a 0 for reliability and value if it were possible. Spent more time in the shop than on the road.
