    The first (BMW) Mini's had many problems mate, check to see if the ones you look at have had the recall work done, there were various electrical issues and the front window coming out/cracking too.

    My mum bought an 05 plate mini cooper. Fantastic little car. Pretty quick, handles well, fun to drive. Only had it a year so cant comment on reliabilty yet.

    seem to be expensive imo, but the sporty ones look good! is it worth looking at (cheaper) alternatives or is she stuck on them ?

    They are expensive because they hold their value well. Not my cup of tea but I can see why people like them.
