Mini Cooper – 2007 Review: Life with a party animal can be fun. There’s constant excitement, things to do, places to go, and always with a kickin’ soundtrack. For some people, it’s the epitome of living the dream. Yet sometimes even die-hard animals get on your nerves, no matter how fun they are. That’s the case with the 2007 Mini Cooper. It brandishes fun like a club, from its clown-car styling inside and out to its frisky driving manners. It wears thin in the daily commute though, and makes us wonder if maybe living with the volume turned up to 11 isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
