However, I feel very reassured by the comments made. In the UK a distance of 90 miles should in most places get you to a MINI dealer, and 300 miles will definitely get you there.

I'm not now as concerned about not having a spare, so thanks guys.

I am jealous of your densly MINI dealer'd country. Though I guess we have the free roadside assistance, so if you do end up somewhere like ohh 500 miles away from a dealer (Yes its easily possible in the Continental US in the middle) they'll tow you there, but it'd still be annoying. Anyway, good everyone's happy, now we can go back to complaining the runflats are expensive and stiff.
