Mini Cooper S

[Crowbar]

I bought a brand new Mini Cooper S last year that has a serious flaw.
dontbuyamini.co.uk
It’s been back to the dealer on several occasions and they have attempted to cure the problem with out success.
They now tell me that the problem is ‘common to this model’.
Has anybody else had the same problem?

Not quite spam but a direct link to his website where it says -
I bought a brand new MINI COOPER S in March 2008.

Driving it in cold weather is uncomfortable due to cold draughts entering the vehicle through the steering column and parts of the dashboard.

On the coldest days I've considered wearing gloves and putting a blanket across my legs.

MINI UK have attempted a modification to cure the problem without success.

Mr Richard Stracey, customer service executive at MINI UK, informs me that this is "normal for this model". IF YOU'D PREFER NOT TO SUFFER THE SAME DISCOMFORT....
DON'T BUY A MINI.

I imagine than rather than post this himself he hopes more people will visit the site which has a counter on it , this will then shame bmw into taking some action, or its just a vanity exercise!

the op has been accused of spamming previously.

If the OP has a problem and wants folk to take him seriously and get help or attract interest then he needs to spend a bit more time explaining himself and the problem instead of just spaming his own website.

Just plain laziness.
