A full used buyer\u2019s guide on the MINI Convertible focusing on the Mk2 model that was on sale between 2009 and 2015<\/h2>\n

Verdict<\/h2>\n

BMW has been very clever with the MINI\u2019s design, because from the outset it has been evolutionary. Those in the know can distinguish the three generations of MINI Convertible that we\u2019ve had so far, yet to the casual onlooker they look much the same. As a result, you can buy one of these second-generation MINIs and many people won\u2019t know how old it is. And thanks to their decent build quality, these are also cars that wear their age very well. With plenty of cherished examples on the market to choose from, buying a MINI Convertible needn\u2019t be that much of a gamble if you do your homework; the biggest disappointment for many owners is the poor practicality. But accept that before buying and you should love the MINI ownership experience.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Few cars have enjoyed the enormous sales success of the BMW MINI since it first arrived in 2001. Seen by many buyers as a baby BMW, there\u2019s nothing exclusive about the model, yet this is a car with a following that rivals haven\u2019t been able to emulate.<\/p>\n

Much of that is down to the feel-good factor conjured up by the cheeky styling inside and out, although the go kart-like handling also goes some way to explaining why the MINI is so popular.<\/p>\n
