The BMW Mini is one of the most popular cars in the United Kingdom. It comes in different engine specs: the regular Mini, the Cooper, Cooper D, and the newest one, the Cooper S.  A Mini lease may often be taken out by people with a small family who want to experience a stylish and fun type of motoring.

A standard Mini lease has a term of 36 months and comes with an agreement for contract hiring. Upon leasing, there is the usual requirement for advance payment, which is followed by monthly payments with VAT. The deal for the lease of the car is often based on 10,000 miles per annum.

The newest version of the Mini now features an engine which is British-built and has a new and enhanced suspension system. A manual transmission with six speeds is also supplied in this new model. The Mini features alloy wheels, a CD player, and an anti-lock braking system. You can also have the option to add other features, for an extra cost, such as metallic paint, automatic gearbox, leather seats, climate control, air conditioning, electric sunroof, Bluetooth, and satellite navigation.

The handling of the Mini lets you have a go-kart feel with its poise and grip, which is similar to an expensive sports vehicle. The dimension of the car makes it easy to manoeuvre. The steering system responds quickly giving you a ride that is firm and comfortable.

Mini leasing allows you the chance to experience a great lifestyle in an inexpensive way. You can get the most out of the car — from security and safety, to reliability and quality, as well as great driver satisfaction.

Not like the BMW Mini range is short on flare design or even trims, but BMW have decided that they’re going to release a new model which will be called the Graphite. The One, Cooper and Cooper D will each be eligible for the graphite model which starts a £13,000 for the Mini One and the Cooper D been the most costly at £15,660.

The Mini One Graphite gets the dark silver metallic paint, the common silver that you see Cooper S’s in. Two black bonnet stripes, white indicator lenses, Piano Black interior, 15” alloy wheels and a few graphite badges.

The Mini Cooper models get all the same upgrades but come with 16” alloys and either black or white bonnet stripes.
The graphite models would be a money saver if you could get the darker metallic silver on the lower models which you can’t. But could save you up to £300.

The graphite models are available to order now.

The new BMW Mini is now one of the most popular sights on British roads today and you can go 5 minutes down a road without spotting a mini cooper or the slightly more desirable Cooper S.
Ever since BMW first released the new Mini it was a hit on the forecourts and this trend hasn’t died.
The new Mini clubman is the latest Mini derivative as a small estate car for those people that now have a small family but still want the fun and style that the normal Mini offers.
The Clubman comes in the usual engine spec of mini one, Cooper D, Cooper and the Cooper S. Clearly the Cooper S is the hottest flavour of all coming with a 1.6 litre 175 BHP engine which is of course supercharged. You’ll be expecting 44.8MPG in your Cooper S clubman but if you opt for the diesel engine then 68mpg is achievable.

The Cooper S’s are highly tuneable from a stage one which fits a reduced supercharger puller and a remap for your ecu and your rev limit increased to 7250RPM you’ll be looking at 205/210 BHP and the stage 5 you’ll be looking at around 260BHP compromising of the following modifications to your cooper S, smaller supercharger puller, Miltek Exhaust system and manifold, new cam and throttle body and finally a big valve cylinder head. Of course any of these Mini tuning applications will invalidate your warranty.

Wanting a metallic paint then expect to shell out around £330 if you’re not looking for one of the solid (non metallic) colour such as Chili Red or Pepper White. The optional 17” web spoke alloys really suit any of the Mini range and are worth the £800 price tag. The Panoramic glass sunroof is a really nice touch on the Clubman as it gives the car a bigger feel for anyone in the rear. For a well spec’d Clubman Cooper S then you’ll be looking at around the £22,000 mark.
