R56 MCS Oil Change Difficult?

Ordered oil change through National Tyres as it's a no brainer for the money.

Used to use them for my Clio which needed oil every 6K. Would not trust 2 year intervals on new cars.

So was suprised that they had to order the oil in. Fair enough sow ent today to get it done and was told they have to move the coolant bottle to get at the filter.

Only owned the car 2 weeks now and coming from a 2 litre clio with no space to move under the bonnet thought the mini would be easier.

Anyone successfully used National Tyres for their oil change?
