Hi, I joined this site after buying a 2005 Mini Cooper Convertible. I have like the Mini's ever since they came out but since I live in the US, it's a bit difficult to find one. I have a couple of questions for those out there. Is it ok to take my Mini to an automatic car wash? Should I take my Mini to a Mini dealership to get the oil changed or is anywhere ok? Where can I find accessories for my Mini? I think that's all for now. Thanks.

I wouldn't take a MINI to an automatic car wash ... especially a Convertible.

Dealer labor rates are outrageous. Find an independent shop familiar with MINIs to work on your car.

What type of accessories are you looking for?

Hi there

You could always post some photos of your little baby! :)

Any kind of accessories that you know fit well with Mini. I don't mind putting in aftermarket accessories but I want to make sure they won't hurt them. I will upload them soon. :) Thanks for the advice.

Just wash it yourself.
