Hi people

I have a 2007 Mini Cooper and have noticed a few spots of laquer peel on the bonnet, I've been to mini who said that is out of warrenty. I know the corrision warrenty is 12 years on this model but does anyone know how long the paint warrenty is? Or anyone has similar issues?

I believe the paint warranty is 3 years and is that subject to you looking after the car and it being cleaned regularly and touching up any chips etc as they occur, and the corrosion 12 years against rust coming through from the rear of the panel, and thats providing youve had the car serviced and body checked at the recommended intervals and recorded as such by MINI.

Do you know if the bonnet paint is the original? or has it been resprayed since new? if so MINI wouldnt redo under their warranty unless they did the repair at one of their dealers anyway?
