After ordering a mini cooper last week I was looking through the extras you can add and can across one saying "space saving spare wheel" does this mean you dont get one with your car ?
If so what happens if you have a flat?
had the 17" s wheels and the chilli pack fitted and singel cd ,sports suspension

The 17" (& 16") wheels are "runflats". If you get a puncture you can drive safely at up to 50mph until you can get the tyre repaired or replaced if necessary. There is a tyre pressure system in the car that will alert you to a puncture.

Congrats on ordering youe new car BTW - what colour?

Cheers,
KenL
