Mini Cooper Insurance Cost by Model Year

Ultimately, as any vehicle ages, the decision will have to be made to remove coverage for physical damage from the policy. As a Mini Cooper depreciates over time, the cost of insuring for physical damage claims is more than the benefits it provides.

As an example, eliminating physical damage coverage on a 2013 Mini Cooper may save you $622 annually, depending on where the physical damage deductibles were set and the age of the driver rated on the vehicle.

Just keep in mind that removing comprehensive and collision coverage means you do not have insurance for claims like hitting a deer, damage from hail, fire, or flooding, or any kind of collision accident.
