For months people here have waited, taken delivery, or are still waiting for their new Mini. During this time some people have experienced issues, which thankfully are being repaired or have been repaired, but could you imagine waiting all this time then having your car written off?

Mentions the loop spoke wheels in the description yet the pic has the cosmos.

Shame all round! still, £12k is a bit steep given the structural damage around the sill.

I can't even click on that link. I don't think I could handle seeing it.

Yes my car was in for repair and showed them the pictures and asked for quote, they said would be £6000+ at the least. Would hate to think what bmw/mini would charge, as this was a ford dealer, I think most they should look at selling this car is £6000 as at £12k plus repairs you looking at that cost of a new one and this has already been a write off.
