Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-522 is a fanstastic option to use for flat towing your 2007 Mini Cooper Convertible. You just need the EZ Base Plate Kit # 521876-1 (which fits the Sport suspension but not the Aerodynamic Package) to connect to the tow bar.
To finish out your towing setup I recommend the Combo Towing Kit # RM-9243-1 which gives you wiring, safety cables, and some locks and covers to preserve the life of your towing equipment, as well as the Brake Buddy Classic 3 # HM39494 and Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751440. The Brake Buddy 3 is a great braking system because of how easy it is to use and you get the reliable Brake Buddy name to back up your purchase.
Most flat towing setups require a high-low adapter for the tow bar to remain level while towing. I have linked our selection of adapters for you to check out as well as an article that will help you determine which is the best one for your application.
I have attached some review videos for you to check out as well.
Please note that according to my research you can only flat tow your Mini Cooper if you have a manual transmission. For an automatic transmission you'll need a tow dolly like the Kar Kaddy X # DM9713093.
