Sporty Mini Cooper is not so Mini

Get adrenalin-rushed to the Max in this Mini


Topless, perky and loads of fun.

Before your mind starts to wander, remember that we’re talking about renting the Mini Cooper S here!

It’s a fun rental car that’ll take you by surprise, whether you’re in the driving seat or watching enviously as it passes you while driving to Clifton 4th.

If you’ve seen The Italian Job you’ll know all about the prowess of the chic yet potent Mini Cooper S – if the heart-racing car chase scene in that movie didn’t convince you as such, nothing else will, except maybe driving one for yourself.

CapeTownMagazine.com has this convertible rental car for you at excellent rates to enjoy on your holiday in Cape Town.

When you rent a Mini Cooper S in Cape Town the biggest challenge you’ll experience is trying to choose the best roads to let it play on.

Being a small and nimble car, the supercharged Mini makes town driving a pleasure rather than a pain, but if you let it stretch its legs a bit on some twisty roads, such as the scenic tree-lined Rhodes Drive in Constantia or Camps Bay Drive, you’ll quickly gain a deeper appreciation of this rental car’s capabilities and eagerness to play.

Once you’re done joy-riding, navigate your Cooper S to any of Cape Town’s trendy hangout spots, with Caprice, Sandy B (at the Bay hotel) or Paranga in Camps Bay

If the Mini could join you for a drink, it would order an exotic cocktail – this is one car that is as hip and happening as the places you’ll want to take it to.

To continue enjoying the adrenalin- and adventure-filled vibe that driving a Mini Cooper S always creates, book a stay at the Protea Fire & Ice Hotel, where you can rest your head after what will no doubt have been an exhilarating day spent at the wheel of the Cooper S.

And now for some numbers… The Mini Cooper S has an energetic 1.6-litre supercharged engine that puts out 125kW and 220Nm, giving it a 0-100km/h time of 8.3 seconds and a top speed of 217km/h.

We’ve arranged for you to be able to enjoy the sporty performance of this Mini Cooper S rental car for just R1000 a day – simply book your joy ride.
