Electronic winding when turning?

Can anyone explain what the sound is that is made when you turn your Cooper?

It sounds like an electronic winding sound....

Help!!

That'll be the electric power steering pump. It is quite loud but you get used to it. It's one of the "characteristics" of the MINI

MINI, RX8 and MX5 - Done those............. It's now TTime

Smile Noises? Misfits? Parts falling off?

Whoo, and I thought I had ANOTHER problem besides the slight left pull, hard-to-close boot (trunk) lid, and airbag light on-and-off (mostly on now but will look at the seat wiring harness).

Just crossed over 3700 miles on my Black over Yellow Cooper, since April 12th. Other than the above I have no complaints & will be ordering an S sometime soon (hopefully) once my dealer tells me he can accept my order.
