General Comments

Having happily run a 2003 Mini Cooper S for 2 years we've just bought a 2006 model and it is the most unreliable vehicle we have ever owned. Of the 80 days since registration it has been at the dealers almost 40 days with assorted mechanical, electrical, trim and paint problems. The most serious faults resulted in the car cutting out at speed on the motorway due first to a faulty engine module and then (2 weeks later) a failed oil recirculation valve. We're now selling the car as we just don't trust it to work properly
