2025 MINI Cooper Consumer Reviews
Pricing
2 days in and loving it so far
Hard to give a review after 2 days. One of my big concerns I’ve heard was the change from tactile switches to the big touchscreen, but since I didn’t drive a Mini before, it wasn’t an issue for me. The screen is very responsive, the AI assistant has been working well. There are so many functions, options and apps within the system, that will take a while to learn. The Cooper S is peppy and fun to drive. There is almost no legroom in the two door - it might work for kids but not adults for any length of time, but my other car is an SUV so it wasn’t a consideration for me. The Ocean Wave color with white roof is beautiful.

2025 Mini Convertible is NOT GOOD
I just made the BIGGEST mistake of leasing a 2025 Mini Cooper S Convertible. So far it has been the worst experience I've ever had in terms of sales, dealership support and the car itself. It is the least reliable car I have ever driven. The soft top has gotten stuck a few times, even while parked in my garage. The headlights fogged up the day I picked it up, which is something I have only seen on really old cars. The service department said that was not normal, yet, they could not figure it out. The dealership generated and delivered the paperwork with the wrong VIN number which required wasting more time at the dealership and starting over. The car would not recognize my profile so every time I drove the car I had to re-do all the settings for seats, mirrors, and the whole system. The back windows go out of synch even though there is not a separate control for the left and right rear windows. They tell you the top can be operated at up to 19miles per hour, yet, it gets stuck while sitting at a redlight. When I had a flat tire and had to call their roadside assistance they kept me waiting loger than 1 hour past the timeframe they provided when I called. I would not recommend buying or leasing a Mini Cooper. You are better off choosing an American, Japanese or other European car brand, just DON'T CHOSE MINI COOPER. I've only had it since Jan 31, 2025 and I've already spent more time dealing with issues that I ever did with Lexus, Mercedes, BMW or Porsche. Save yourself the headaches and go somewhere else!
