Good Points

Handling, stlye.

Bad Points

Had 2 Minis in the space of 3 months. Many faults 'cropped up' after buying them.

General Comments

First Mini, had 3 months, was in garage for:
- New fog light - wasn't working
- New Spot light - letting in water
- New CD changer - wasn't working
- New Rear discs and pads - uneven wearing
- New rear wheel bearing - broken
- New windscreen (although the garage did break it)
- Faulty computer
2nd Mini, I only 4 days, Power Steering failed. After that I gave my Mini back and got a refund. Very disappointed, but loved having it when it was working ok! Just a pain in the bum when had to spend most of the weekends in the garage getting it fixed!

    I have a 2003 Mini One Diesel 1.4. This car actually uses the Toyota diesel engine taken from the Yaris. Im having trouble with static charge build up which you can really feel through the metal door handles! My engine drive belts etc squeel very bad ( Williams BMW have adjusted these many many times: still not fixed) My instruments all rattle on cold start up's, and my engine struggles to start once the engine is warm ( again 2 years later all these problems have not been fixed by Williams BMW) Dashboard has been removed and ?? to repair annoying rattles and squeeks but still does it !! Anyone else suffering with these problems ? Williams BMW are now 'at a loss what to do with it' they say but i have to bear with them until they find a cure!! No doubt this will happen just after the warranty expires!!
