Got the first prob with it
'handbrake on' warning indicator lamp on continusly
Together with the service/car on the ramp LED sign when you first turn the ignition on
I'll book it in tomorrow to have it checked out.

Car still seems to brake Ok though but I think we'll not use it till its sorted.

In fact just checking in the back of the manual, a combination of these warnings means brake pads worn. Surely the pads can't be worn its only done 800 miles!!
Its on page 117 of the handbook for the R56 3rd one down

Have you tried calling MINI Emergemcy Service they may well be able to come to your car and reset the computers for you tonight
