New to this forum Hi. I am new to this forum but not new to Mini. My wife having owned a Cooper from new since 2003. 44K on the clock. Chilli red with white roof. If anyone out there is reading this post I am after knowing where the best place to get spares from as I think I need a water pump 'O' ring as she is losing coolant. On inspection it is wet in the undertray on the left hand side although the pump itself seems dry. I have searched on the web for items but not much seems to come up. Up to now, the car has been completley reliable and this is the first fault that has taken the car off the road so I'm pretty impressed. Only other faults have been new exhaust after seven years. The usual driver and passenger door lock mechanisms and pads and tyres which is expected.
I hope someone out there can advise and guide on coolant issues and where to get parts quickly and cheaply! I am UK based.
