United-Kingdom new to minis please help!

Hi everyone!

Got my first cooper today and I love her! Shes pepper white diesel with chilli pack 2007 :-)

Im a little confused and thought you very clued up people could help!

does the car come with handbook... I dont have one??!

the car has the sports steering wheel and the lil phone pic near radio controls.... do I have bluetooth for phone?!!

also when I drove it home (3hour drive) it was great but took it out again few hours later for short run and theres a STRANGE noise sounds like its coming from tires almost sounds like a knocking sound which seemed worse on motorway.... any ideas... is this just normal with run flat tires??


thanks so much


Nina x

Knocking noise is not normal.....

If the car was specced with bluetooth then it will be there. It was an expensive add on so I doubt it. The buttons mean nothing. You could take your key to a dealer and they can tell you what it was speced with.

You can get a manual here...

Welcome Nina. As DaFlake says knocking noises are not normal so you should get that checked out. If you definitely have the chili pack I think you should have the basic bluetooth. It is included now but not sure about 2007. If you have it you can pair your phone with the car and accept/make calls through the stereo.
