I had two Cooper S's a '06 6 speed manual and a '09 automatic. They are an absolute hoot to drive. I had lots of trouble with both of mine. My wife has a regular ’06 MINI that has been completely trouble free.

I truly loved mine but I’ll never buy another one. Still hurts. It was like being married to supermodel and finding out she’s the town whore.
I drive a Honda CRV now. It’s boring, but turn the key and it goes
