I recently began having a problem with my 2018 Mini. The top wouldn't go down. I went to the dealer today to have it checked out. They charged me $221 for a diagnostic fee to tell me what was wrong. Apparently one of the cables in the mechanism broke. In order to resolve the problem I need to buy a frame that includes the cables. They quoted me a price of $4600- I'm really disappointed that a car that isn't that old would have such an expensive repair. The cost is almost half the value of my car. I sent an e-mail to the corporate offices of Mini Cooper. They did call me back and they said they would review the problem and if it were something that would have been covered by warranty, they would cover the cost. Several days later they called back and said they wouldn’t cover the cost. This is all happening shortly after I paid $1300 to replace a motor mount, and $300- to replace a burned out tail light. I'm not going to have the roof fixed, due to the cost. I basically own a hard top car now. My Mini only has 47, 000 miles. I'm going to hold on to the car while I decide what to replace it with. Just thought I'd share my experience...The quality of these cars is terrible, and the support from Mini Cooper/BMW has been a terrible customer service experience.

Bought the JCW almost new with only 5,000 miles and have added another 10,500 in city and highway driving. This is my third Mini after two Countrymen S All4s as we wanted to downsize for the city. The driveline is perfect for this chassis with 228 hp and 8-Speed Automatic. It is also incredibly versatile as we have already had four adults on board and often carry small bags and groceries. Its handling, steering and ride are very balanced and direct and the solidity of the BMW platform DNA is clearly present. You get a lot of quality for the price. I love the Heads-Up Display and combination soft top with sunroof which opens very wide even with the roof closed. This is the perfect open-air machine to use and enjoy. The only aspect that buyers should be aware of is the overly-stiff suspension / wheels if you opt for the 18" size. I think that Mini engineers tar geted 1.0g+ lateral acceleration at the expense of a brutally stiff ride.

Race car. F14 on earth. Great dealer in VA Beach. Great mileage. Many hours with top down. Turbo has a kick to it. Auto park is unique. Like F14, has after burners!
