Expert Reply:
You didn't say the model year of your Mini Cooper but it looks like you were researching a 2016 from what I can tell. From my research a 2016 Mini with an automatic transmission cannot be flat towed with all 4 wheels on the ground. However, it can be towed on a tow dolly like the Roadmaster # RM-2050-1.
Includes trailer brakes but they need a 7-way trailer connector on them for the brakes to work. I recommend adding our trailer wiring kit, part # HS381-9000, to install the 7-wy and connect the brake wires.
