Are Mini Coopers reliable and would you consider them to be a good car?

Predicting how many kilometres a car lasts is next to impossible, as each person drives a car differently and in varying situations that affect the potential lifespan of the vehicle. However, as the New Mini has been built by BMW since 2000 they are as reliable as any other premium small car, so long as you service them regularly and don't skimp on cheap parts. The Cooper S John Cooper Works models have a cult following with good cause, as they are legitimately brilliant, fun little cars.
