Go for 07 upwards if the budget allows. The earlier ones had electric and gearbox issues. Cracking wee car and BMW build quality to go with . 1.4 petrol cant be faulted . I had one and loved it . May be a squeeze if you do a big weekly shop. Side note there are only 4seats in older ones

Agree with last comment, pre 07 plates R53 model was new and had a few issues, post 07 R56 model definitely much better, still few weak spots but every car has something, they do use oil so keep eye on levels

for the use as you say, buy a ford focus or ford fiesta, much more reliable and a mountain of cheap spares

I've had 2 minis I loved driving it that much. Have drove a different car last few years n have to say wouldn't go back to a mini as they come with expensive problems once your out of warranty and paying yourself
