I'm looking for something really reliable that will last me atleast 3-5 years.
Preferably a newer model as in 2008 and up.
My budget is 13-15k

Basically could be any type of vehicle but would like it to look decent and pack a punch when needed.

Just looking for something to spark my interest.

Mini Cooper/ S

I've had zero problems with my Mini, I have the supercharged R53 version.

Good mileage, fun, would definitely last you 5 years.

I knew I was missing this car! Ive been looking at cars for awhile now and Ive skipped this one.

I actually really like them. Would you suggest a certain year for these?

Well I think you'd have to go with an earlier year (avoid, I believe, 01s and 02s) Mine is an 05. They changed from superchargers to turbochargers in 2007, and the body style changed slightly too. I personally prefer the earlier body styling.

Finding an S may be a little tricky as they are probably in the upper part of your price range. But N/A Minis ALL day, and you could get a MINT one. Which are still fun to drive, and surprisingly still pack a little punch.

But if you search I'm sure you could find an 03-04 Cooper S for around 15.
