The left hand engine mount had suffered from a massive fatigue crack (probably a function of my sports+ suspension!). I popped into Masterdriver in Aston Clinton (near Aylesbury), who are an independent Mini specialist. They were brilliant! Replaced engine mounts, my exhaust (which had rotted through its first skin and was on its way through the second) and MOT'd the car - all within 24hrs and also offered me a courtesy car for the day. The bill was a fraction of the price of what I would have paid at Mini Dealership (estimate 30-40% saving) and BMW Mini parts were used. They were also full of advice and tips on Mini ownership.
I will most definately be going back. A credit to honest independent car dealerships.
