Cars similar to mini cooper?

I live in canada, i want to save up for a used car however if i do get a car i want to get a small car, similar to a mini cooper and i say similar because mini coopers themselves are so expensive and i can't afford that, also people have told me even if you get a used one they are still expensive to repair. Are there any honda cars that are small? Or toyotas?

Fiat 500, Toyota Yaris, Honda Fit, Scion xD, Mazda 2.

How about the Honda Fit or Toyota Matrix?

Try Toyota Yaris or Scion or Honda Fit.
see also the Nissan Cube and maybe even Ford Fiesta.
the google term to use is "subcompact"

The Smart Car is another option for a very small sub-compact car.

I believe The "Fit" is the smallest Honda, you can look at a the small Fiats.

Toyota matrix got allwheeldrive version.

Toyota Yaris
Honda Fit
Fiat 500
Scion Tc
Mazda 2

Honda made a CRX two door coupe or a Civic Coupe Toyota made the Matrix. Vw has the Beetle.

Fiat 500. Those are some cute little cars that are fairly inexpensive.

Kia and Hyundai

But if you're looking for that rounded off look that the Cooper has, I suggest you go really old school and look for an AMC Pacer.
