Habberstad Mini

I went to Habberstad Mini due to a mailing for a raffle of a Mini GP. In talking to George, my salesmen; I found the GP was very limited and too expensive for me. George educated me on the various Mini mod of a Mini GP. In talking to George, my salesmen; I found the GP was very limited and too expensive for me. George educated me on the various Mini models and numerous options of which there are 10M combinations for a Mini. George able give me a price for my trade, booklets for me to review and build my own Mini. I went for 2 test drives to more fully get to know the brand. It took a few days online to finally get the version suited for me. I then met with George to review my build. He pointed out things about the car and options I had chosen which farther define my choices. I settled on a build, we agree on price and ordered the car which took about 5-6 weeks to build and get. On the delivery day I added some wrinkles by deciding to completely change the deal from a 3 years finance to a 36 month lease with cash back for my trade. This was the icing on the cake and sweeten to experience lower the monthly pay from $520 to $270. Big difference from the $1080 I was paying for my BMW 135i. Love the exterior color - British Racing Green, interior leather - Toffee, style and handling of the Mini. It's got some things I would redesign - dip moldings along the roof don't work and you and the seat get very wet when you open the door or window. No clock only display on radio. Buttons on lower center console get blocked by your coffee mug. Red display is very bad for my vision; wish there was a way to change it to a different color. You must put the fog lights on every time you use the lights. Automatic day/night rearview mirror doesn't work well at all. You can't reach seat belts without having the door open. Many options should be standard - garage door opener, automatic headlights, tinted rear windows, short antenna. More

George was a pleasure I am delighted in his efficiency and work I only have wonderful things to speak about him and he is a very honorable person. The financing manager who dealt with me in the other hand and work I only have wonderful things to speak about him and he is a very honorable person. The financing manager who dealt with me in the other hand, I am not happy about. I felt like I was manhandled, and pushed into something I did not want to do. I rated Great overall experience because of George he is a great Salesman, and I would recommend him to other people. More

The dealership and George know how to take care of a customer in every way. When I first researched buying a Mini, George walked me through the model I was interested in and then, knowing that I needed customer in every way. When I first researched buying a Mini, George walked me through the model I was interested in and then, knowing that I needed several months to finish my other car lease, had his staff keep up with me by phone. At the time of ordering, he went through the numerous options available on the car. At delivery, he went through the various items in the car and was available by phone and email for future questions. He is intelligent, professional and accurate in his job, and a gentlemen. More

They boast about their customer service but from the beginning it was less then satisfactory. I went in to look at a used car I saw on their website. They had little knowledge of their inventory and wh beginning it was less then satisfactory. I went in to look at a used car I saw on their website. They had little knowledge of their inventory and when I looked at it major things were wrong with the car. We went back the next day since they had another car for me to look at that I might like. This car had minor blemishes that they said they would fix. I liked the car I put a small down payment on the car to hold till the weekend. After that it went down hill.... I sent a email telling them I would be in at 9am on the saturday following. They claim never getting the email, which i replied to their initial email. We waited for about an hour for them, and the car was not ready to be seen. None of the things we discussed about the car where addressed. So we made an appointment for the Friday to pick up the car and that they would fix what we discussed. I waited till Thursday to call them to tell them I did not receive a call about picking up my car from the financial lady. I left 2 messages, one on her voice mail and another with the receptionist. Never heard back until Friday afternoon (the day of the pick up), she only asked about extending my warranty not about how much I would be putting down. When I picked up the car Friday night. They found the sunroof was not working properly and I would have to bring it back the next week. They also financed the whole purchase price of the car which we did not want to do. From the beginning we told them what we wanted down, they choose to ignore this when putting the official paperwork together. I drove the car home, the next morning the TPS light came on saying "Inactive". After all of this I had to bring my car in the Tuesday morning after purchase to have the sunroof and TPS addressed. When I dropped off the car I had told them I needed a loaner car, but they never asked if I could drive a manual (I bought an automatic). They only had a manual available so they send me to hertz. They tell me that they have to order the sensors, ok fine not a problem. I call the next day, Wednesday, they have to order a seal for the roof. It could be ready midday Thursday. Since I bought the car they have had the car in their possession more then I have. I have been in a loaner car for as long as the one I purchased, if i wanted that car I would have and for a lot less money. All in all from start to finish it has been 2 1/2 weeks and I have only driven the car 3 days. I would not recommend buying a used car from them ever. There is a complete lack of communication on their end. I was always the one to initiate any type of communication. Use caution when buying from them. More

Jarred was super knowledgeable about the car and MINI's in general. He answered all my questions and concerns about the car, with great details, facts, and even stories about other people's experien MINI's in general. He answered all my questions and concerns about the car, with great details, facts, and even stories about other people's experience. This made the decision process very comforting and I had no doubts about the car itself. The test drive was offered right away, with no ifs or buts. Just straight forward and welcoming. I was hesitant about the price, so I couldn't exactly decide right away. Jarred he told me he will put the car on hold for me, giving me room to change my mind if needed. At a lot of other dealerships, they would get pushy and eager to get a deposit out of you. Jarred did the opposite. I already offered to pay a deposit, but could not decide just yet and needed further consulting with my family, so right away he said to wait until I'm sure before I pay anything. The price from this dealership is higher than some other options I compared to, but the car is in fantastic shape and it comes with great service and a decent amount of full warrantee (3 years) left on the car. I would highly recommend anyone getting a MINI to buy a certified one for this reason. The extra money will be worth it, saving you a lot of trouble and $$$ in the future. Anyway, I would highly recommend buying a MINI from this dealership, and ask for Jarred, he's fantastic. I couldn't be happier. I'm also quite confident that this dealership only sells quality cars. If something is wrong with a used car, they're not going to try and sell it, they would get rid of them. For the record, I purchased a pre-owned 2009 mini cooper in british racing green. More

Went above the call of duty to make it easy to make the purchase. We eventually went for a different brand, but I am very grateful to Gus for all his efforts. If you are considering MINI (and you should), then Gus is your guy. More
