With regards to comparison to the MX5, the first thing is the weight, the mini feels like a tank, its so much more taught and solid. Not been on many country roads as yet so will see how it compares over time, feels great with Sports Suspension Plus and 17s though :-D

Ding noise could be cold weather warning.

Runflat light probably came on due to cold but I would keep an eye on the pressure just to be sure. A bad tire would be something that you would want to quickly talk with the dealer about. The sooner the better so that they can't blame it on you.
