Q: I’m 16 and just getting my license in florida. What car is better a mini cooper S or a land rover LR2?
Ok so in a few weeks i get my license in florida, and I’m getting a car. So i have the choice of a Mini Cooper S or a Land Rover LR2 and I don’t know if i want a fast sports car or an SUV. Please help with your thoughts. :)
in reply to ken k i learnt to drive stick when i was 11.

A: Go with the mini. They aren’t super fast, and will be a good “learner” car. They are also very stylish, and are quick enough. They are designed by bmw, so you know the quality is top notch. Land Rovers are a waste of money. There are many better suvs out there.

Q: What is the Mini Cooper’s breaks and pedals like?
I really want to buy a mini cooper, but I hate driving one of those luxury cars where the breaks and pedals are really soft.

I rather much prefer the opposite, such as the tacoma truck that i have now.

so what kind of breaks/pedals does the mini cooper have?

A: Since the MINI Cooper (and Cooper S) are engineered by BMW, you can believe they don’t have soft brakes!
I’ve driven the new Cooper S on test tracks at over 130mph–no softie there! I also took one from Barcelona to Andorra through the serpentine curves of the Pyrenees Mountains. Talk about a car in its element! Take one for a test drive. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Q: where can i find a new muffler for my 2003 mini cooper?
I have a mini cooper 2003 and my muffler is rusted out.. And i need to replace it but i am having a hard time finding a replacement muffler within a good price. If any one knows where i can find one please tell.. thank you for your help.

A: pending on where you are there are several options. Get a oem from the dealer at a over priced cost. Or go with a after market say:Borla, Millitec, Alta to name a few of the top ones. if you go to www.northamericanmotoring.com and look under vendor announcments there are many vendors selling mufflers/exhaust systems which can improve the motoring experience. Also there may be a local mini club in your area and you could check out what others are doing. an easy DIY as long as you have jack stands and a few tools. There are even how to’s on www.northamericanmotoring.com

good luck

Q: Does the WORKS MINI Cooper S live up to the Hype?

Q: Is there any reason to get the Mini Cooper S over the Mini Cooper?
Is there any reason to get the Mini Cooper S over the Mini Cooper?

A: The ability to pass at will on the highway.
The extra horsepower and acceleration to avoid an accident if need be.

Q: A Mini Cooper is stopped at a traffic light.The Light turns green and the Mini Cooper starts moving with a?
constant acceleration of of 0.6m/s^2. Just as it does,a Hummer pases it,going at a steady velocity of 65km/hr.

A) How LONG does it take the Mini Cooper to be going as fast as Hummer?
B) How LONG does it take the Mini Cooper to catch the Hummer?
C) How FAR from the traffic lights are the cars when the Mini Cooper catches the Hummer?

A: I will assume the Hummer maintains a constant 65 km/hr, or
1 kilometer / hr = 0.28 m/s, so 18.2 m/s

The mini cooper speed is
v(t)=0.6*t

A) when v(t)=18.2, t=30.3 seconds

B) a catch occurs when
18.2*t=.5*0.6*t^2

note that t=0 is a solution, which is when the Hummer passed the Mini.
the other solution is
60.6 seconds

C) 1.1 km
