We have a MINI Cooper S and pull a Hunter TD, 4` x 10`. We love it and have no trouble pulling it. Our son also has a MINI Cooper S and pulls a Yoder Toder, 4` x 8`. If we can be of any help or answer any questions don't hesitate to ask.

Whoah, whoah, whoah! We should be clear here - Flying Finn is talking about what he calls the "classic" Mini Cooper, that is the one from 1959 to about 1975 (1990s for the basic version) which is several sizes smaller than any car any American has ever seen, right? OK, slight exaggeration!

By comparison, today's Mini and Cooper are the size, weight and power of a truck and anything said about the original doesn't apply to the new one.
