MINI Convertible keeps an estimated 61% of its recent market value after 5 years — #316 of 684 cars VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the MINI Convertible retains an estimated 61% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #316 of 684 cars we track. That trails the 63% five-year average for Sedan in its class by 2 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the MINI Convertible sheds about 15% of its recent market value in year one alone. From roughly $36,695 it falls to around $22,347 by year five — a five-year loss near $14,348, about $7.86 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used MINI Convertible bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
