Default Should I buy a mini?

Great quirky little car. Not entirely practical if you need to carry things/people around on a regular basis though.
Thanks, exactly what I was looking for! Have you driven it? If so, what did you think?

There is only me and a dog so there's not much worry about the size of the car. And I'm looking for something a bit more economical with respect of insurance and stuff.
