Your choice will be limited if you want all those extras. Not many cars have SatNav for example.

Buying used is the way to go if you want to save some money. You should be able to buy a used car at least £1k less than from a dealer. You'll still have warranty and since you've owned a MINI before you'll know what to look out for.

If I were buying a used MINI I'd go for one as new as possible even if you have to give up on a few options in order to maximise getting a good one.
