    Collin was very helpful in getting a new Mini Cooper S cabriolet this past month. He is very passionate about Mini and knows everything about the brand. This location for the dealer has a strong selection of colors and options and has a bit of flexibility on prices since it's a bit farther from LA. Ask for Collin if you want a fun car that saves gas compared to many other options in the marketplace.

    If you need or want a new car get a MINI. If you gonna get a MINI go here to MINI of Monrovia. If you going to MINI of Monrovia see Colin. He helped me get into a new Cooper Convertible JCW for my wife and daughter to use. Super selection and personalized service. Almost 100% ready to go when I got to the dealership only sign and drive, the details and deal all done by text before hand. This is my 12th MINI!!! You read that right... #12. See of the pictures but the newest one I got is the Grey Convertible JCW. Get a MINI, don't have FOMO.... YOLO. Again... ask for Colin.

    My very first car purchase was completed perfectly with Collin's help! I bought a 2023 Mini Cooper 2-Door CPO. At first, I thought the service at the dealership for a CPO car might not be very attentive. However, from email communication to our in-person meeting, the test drive, and the entire purchase process, Collin was consistently prompt, courteous, and proactive in his responses and handling of everything. Moreover, the small issues I mentioned during the test drive were already taken care of when I picked up the car. I was really touched! Thank you for giving me such a pleasant experience buying my very first car (and of course, my MINI is perfect too!). P.S. I really appreciate that he took photos for us and captured the moment of our very first car.

    The Best Car Buying Experience! Ask for Collin Cocores! When my 18-year-old Mini Cooper finally took its last breath, Sandro Parra at Avus Autosport recommended that I call his friend Collin Cocores at MINI of Monrovia. I live much closer to downtown LA, so this wasn't the most convenient drive, but I am so glad I made the trip. I'll be honest, my first Mini buying experience years ago at Nick Alexander MINI was stressful and took almost eight hours. This time was the complete opposite. From the very first phone call, Collin was approachable, kind, and genuinely enthusiastic about all things MINI. He took the time to listen to what I wanted, explained my options clearly, and made me feel confident I'd be taken care of. When I arrived at the dealership, everything went exactly as he promised. My friend and I got there around 10:30 a.m., and by 2 p.m., we were done. I was driving away in a beautiful new MINI -- even better than I expected for the price. The entire process, including the test drive and paperwork, was smooth and stress-free. Branden Razzouk over at BMW finance was also wonderful -- friendly, funny, and just a joy to work with. Both Collin and Branden made what is usually a tedious, high-pressure process feel easy and genuinely enjoyable. I've never said that about buying a car before! Collin was professional, informative, and had a great sense of humor throughout the process. He even surprised me with a MINI stuffed animal - Spike the BullDog and took photos of me with my new car and the big ribbon on top -- such a thoughtful touch. When I bought my first MINI years ago DTLA, I barely got a smile from the sales team. This experience couldn't have been more different. If you're thinking about buying a MINI, go see Collin Cocores at MINI of Monrovia. He's the real deal -- honest, passionate, and a true MINI enthusiast who makes sure you leave happy.

    Purchasing a vehicle at MINI of Monrovia has been top notch. My Motoring Advisor was Collin Cocores who I followed from his previous location. He has a passion for the MINI brand and his knowledge of everything MINI is vast. He kept me informed throughout the special order process. I especially enjoyed our conversations about the MINI brand as well as other cars. Branden, the finance specialist, was professional and informative about additional services. If you are looking for a MINI, Collin is the guy.

    Bought my car from Collin who was excellent! He explained the process well, gave us different options when purchasing, and was never pushy or rude. I'd 100% buy from him again. He even gave great Taco Bell recommendations!!!

Ask for him and he will definitely take care of you. The issue I had was during the appraisal because I was presented with a value which was $2,000 less than the online value. This was primarily due to a very small dent in the inside door jam because of the seat belt buckle got caught when I closed the door. The appraiser noted that it was structural damage?!!? Ivan even admitted that the car was pristine otherwise and even suggested that selling it to a private seller might be better. No budging on the value of the appraisal or the price. I could've walked away but the very low mileage of the car we were buying was too good to pass up.

Ivan, you made my experience hopeful and smooth. You reassured me you weren't here for the money but to help me get what made me feel me! Once I took the car home, he still checked in on me to make sure everything was going smoothly. Unfortunately, I did have to return the vehicle within the 10 day mark BUT within 5 hours, Ivan was able to find the same exact car, same price, same mileage and had it delivered to Duarte. He literally rolled the red carpet out for me and I couldn't be more happier. Thank you Duarte team, thank you Ivan.

    TL DR, "Ivan" was extremely rude and a sleazy salesman that endangers his clients. Do not buy the…read morered Mazda Protege5 that is for sale (or rather any car that is for sale here) To my credibility, this is not the first Mazda Protoge5 that I have owned, I have done top to bottom maintenance on this kind of car and am not naive nor a novice to this vehicle. That being said, I will detail the pre-test drive issues I found with the car. For starters the glove box handle was broken. Just straight up missing. When I asked how do I open the glove box, "Ivan," said "here let me open it for you." He then proceeded to finger the broken glove box, prying at it to open, where he never got it open, and then just moved on. The roof rack trim is cracked, and on this kind of car this can result in water leaking into the cabin and causing mold to build up. Before the test drive I turned on the ac to test its functionality. The belt that drives the ac let out a loud squealing. I asked him "So whats up with that" and he remarked "its just because you just turned on the ac, it will go away." During my test drive I noticed that the seat belt light does not shut off despite all passengers wearing their seatbelts, I don't even begin to know why. Another problem I noticed is that the shifter linkage needs rebuilding, the shifter is "floppy" and does not return to neutral, you can literally throw it side to side and it will stay there. The two major problems with this car are ones that I consider dangers to the client. The clutch is almost gone in this car. The clutch is "all the way to the floor" meaning the diaphragm spring in said clutch is wearing out. I asked him when the clutch was replaced, he responded that he did not know, this means it is probably still the original 150k mile clutch. The most dangerous of them all is the brakes. I notice that when braking, all of the linkage and body of the car shakes, this means the rotors are warped or severely worn down. This is an EXTREME safety hazard. DO NOT BUY THIS CAR. When I asked him when the brakes were last replaced he claimed that his shop had replaced them. I asked "the pads and rotors, or just the pads" he said "both." Intentionally lying and risking the safety of the client. What bothered me extremely is that when I asked to test drive the vehicle "Ivan" said "look man, I am busy, the price of 5000 is firm if you aren't going to pay full price don't even bother wasting my time" (The audacity of this dude I swear). I drove an hour to purchase the vehicle, and after being extremely mislead, this "Ivan" was not even willing to negotiate. Overall, in my experience with this "Ivan" and the Active Auto Group was not only disrespectful, but downright criminal. Do not even consider buying a car from here. As similar to the other individuals leaving reviews, I was blocked shortly after leaving his lot. This is in an attempt to prevent negative reviews on his Marketplace account that would hurt his pr. I know this "Ivan" will probably respond with some cookie cutter pr rebuttal trying to devalue or dismiss my review. That is because he only cares about making a quick buck at the expense of the safety of his client. Do not be mislead, do not buy a car, do not waste your time, do not risk your life. Also suspicious that on Yelp the name of this location is "Forza" instead of the actual name of "Active Auto Group."

    Really happy with the whole experience. The car drives great, and the process was smooth and easy…read morefrom start to finish. Definitely satisfied overall.
