Question on buying a used Mini
 

Hi Everyone,

I'm considering buying a used Mini Cooper unfortunately I don't have any experience with this vehicle. I've done a few searches on Google and on Pelican looking for possible issues. Actually I'm a bit worried after looking into this vehicle as there seems to be quite a few issues that can pop up.

It seems there are quite a few Minis on the market in the price range of $4k - $7K but most with mileage at or over 100K.

Currently I'm looking at a 2009, 1.6L I4 Turbo, Automatic 6-Speed.
I'm wondering if there is a local shop here in the South Bay or Los Angles where I can get a PPI? To is there a simple Check list created by a fellow Pelican I can review?

Thanks for any help!
