The alarm has a tilt sensor, right? Surely one of the neighbours would have heard something?

Absolutely gutted for you, such a beautiful MINI. Very distinctive though so fingers crossed for news at some point

Sorry to hear about this.

When you get it back, speak to Mikey at NewMINIstuff. He has some security solutions that would make your MINI much more difficult to steal.

You think a tracker sems expensive.. but to have the chance to get your car back within a few hours and possibly untouched then i'd stump up the cash now!

I had detailed it.. got 12months MOT on monday ready to sell/re-advertise... think i'm guna give up on the nice/bling motors.. stick to sensible family saloons...

Without the coded keys it is not easy to sell on ,and hard to fudge the system,most likely stolen to order or as a donor car for parts.
Whenever I get calls reference new keys and recoding cars ,I run it past BMW and check chassis numbers .
This type of thing is a result of EBAY also, that great deal on a cheap cooper s bonnet ,could be someones pride and joy!!
