Front Rubber Floormats

Does anyone know of a UK based website that sells the official MINI rubber mats (the ones with the big circles in them).

Thanks in advance.

IMHO the big circle ones are a poor design as my heels get caught in the lip of the circles somethimes when I'm shifting.

OK in winter for catching snow but that shouldn't be a big deal in Glesca

Why not buy them from your dealer?

As for as I've seen any oem parts are more expensive when sold on by other companies.

Your local BMW/MINI dealer? In theory you shouldn't be able to buy them from anywhere else.

Get well soon

Why not email your dealer to order them in for you and you can collect when you are feeling better

can anyone confirm whether they're actually worth it in terms of fitting and also grip. I'm thinking of getting them but if I'd be better off with some Halfords ones I'd be happy to get those instead!

They fit great and they grip great (and I don't use the fitting clips either!).

Nuff said.

I don't use the fitting clips either and i've found them to be excellent.

Same here - they don't move at all - no clips.

I have the other MINI rubber mats, the ones without the cup holder looking circles in them but I imagine they are shaped the same and mine fit great have never moved once and my dealer didn't even give me clips

Hmmm - this is looking better all the time for the rubber mats.

Especially with winter coming (at some point) in the next few months!

And you can get them in a selection of colours to match. At £25, they have to be one of the best value accessories in the catalogue.
