Overview & Reviews

Both 2004 Mini Cooper trims offer a new three-spoke leather sport steering wheel. A rear power socket returns as a standard item, and beige leather sport seats are now available. A digital speedometer readout has been added to the electronic display, and an instantaneous fuel-consumption function has been added to its on-board computer.

• Not enough horsepower in base model, questionable seat comfort, not much room for passengers and cargo, some low-grade interior materials.

  By Downhill - May 28 - 4:10 pm

  Have had this car for a year, 11,000miles, fun car to drive, but a nightmareto service especially if you travel. Dealerships are not convenient,must waita month or more to get an appointment. Also, having trouble with transmissionfinding gear at low speeds. Car lunges,so far two dealerships have not beenable to fix it.

  Mini Cooper S Electric Blue - 2004 Mini Cooper
  By Knuckles - May 9 - 2:00 am

  Love driving the Mini Cooper S. The shifting of the 6 speed transmission is so smooth and the clutch is so easy that it is nothing but fun to drive. You can see all around the vehicle. No blind spots. The car has lots of zip and personality. People stop you everywhere to ask you about it. The toggle switches are easy to access. There actually is room in the back seat for four people.

  MIN-E - 2004 Mini Cooper
  By John S - April 17 - 10:40 am

  I bought my Mini Cooper S used with 17,000 on it for a fair price. It is one of the best cars ever driven. People stare, smile, and ask questions wherever you stop. This car is fun, fun, fun. Thats all you can really say. Downside - this is not a family car, but it is perfect for two and the occasional three or four. At 20,000 miles, I had to have the slave cylinder replaced (leaking). This was all taken care of under warrenty.

  What to DRIVE - 2004 Mini Cooper
  By MiniCooperJD - March 22 - 10:00 am

  If you like to DRIVE, then the Mini Cooper is your car! This is not the sort of car that likes to be driven along in a slow and boring fashion! Live it up! The car is SPUNKY, FUN, COLORFUL, and most of all it has a PERSONALITY. How many new cars can boast that? My reliability has been good, build quality is good, though you can certainly tell it is not a Honda. Now, I will let you all be the judge of whether that is a good or bad thing. The interior cupholders are a joke, but other than that, I have NO complaints.

  Tranny Problems? - 2004 Mini Cooper
  By J-man shipes - March 5 - 8:10 pm

  Mini cooper is very fun car to drive. Great on gas, fast, and is very easy to get around in. It is a tight ride in the seats, so its not the funnest to drive for long periods of time. NOW! The downfall. Mini cooper has had problems with the junk transmissions they put into the coopers. Despite being built by BMW, it is not a BMW tranny in the car. My car has 67000 mile on it and the transmission is acting up in it, the cost to fix it? Try $6000, since mini does not sell parts to fix the bad trannies. Other than that, its a very cool car to drive until you get to high miles on the car and it will cost you.

  Nothing Minor about Mini - 2004 Mini Cooper
  By Peejay - February 24 - 10:00 am

  First hand experience of Cooper, Cooper S and Cooper S Works, the little powerhouse just gets better and better. Never looked back since selling the Z3 M Roadster. This little car flatters the driver, diminishes the ego of other drivers with its cheeky charm, poise, handling and performance. Put on a favourite track and drive to the music. Never have another grey day - buy a mini.

  Best car for the money - 2004 Mini Cooper
  By ExoticCars - January 25 - 2:00 pm

  In addition to my Mini I own a Porche Cayman, BMW M3, and a Lexus RX 330... I have to admit that I have more fun on cornering with my Mini than I do with my Cayman. My Mini is amazing... off the line the Mini is quick. The Mini is also a car with limited production. (If you live in LA you will probably see lots of Minis, this is because 30% of all Minis around the world are sold in LA). I wish I bought my Mini before the M3.
