Re: Want to buy a mini, safety issues though

Check out the 2007 model.
I drove a 2003 and its miles ahead.
Both were non-manual though.

The 2007 is a redesign and really shows.

The dealer will have a little government report showing
since 1991 the mini has the lowest fatality rate per
million miles driven. Airbags all around, reinforcements, etc etc.

I'm not sure what happens though if you are run over from
the rear by a monster truck.

Being a 2007 I don't have a maintanence history for you.

There is not much leg room when having 4 ppl on a trip.
