top little mini models

Ah, the Mini—small in stature but big in personality. The top little Mini models often include the Classic Mini Cooper, known for its iconic retro charm and zippy 1.3L engine; the Mini Cooper S, boasting a turbocharged punch with a 2.0L engine; and the John Cooper Works (JCW) version, which cranks performance into the stratosphere with around 228 hp. Used prices for these gems range from about $10,000 for older classics to $40,000+ for newer sportier versions, while brand new Minis can set you back anywhere from $30,000 to $60,000 AUD. For those hunting these pocket rockets, CarShowroom and Tradingpost are your best mates. Always check the fine print and official specs; size might be little, but the options sure aren’t.
