  1. See i was thinking of buying a mini 2002 Mini Cooper 1.6..I done some research on

    www.mini2.com

    It turn out that mini's have all sorts of commen problems.. big ones too such as 5 speed gear

    box's going..steering racks..water pump on most earlier models.

    Its mainly on the earlier models which are most effected..BMW Mini are also aware of these

    issues and also offer customers goodwill towards repair and costs.

    I actually had a word with my local BMW Mini to confirm this before i bought the actuall car

    and they did confirm these are real issues on the earlier models..

    abviously this doesnt effect every mini cooper...im sure most are fine..

  2. Ok so its not to say you cant drive the Lupo GTI fast.. without damaging the gearbox..surely

    thats what its made for ..rite?

    What would be the things to watch out for that cud cause damage to the gearbox..?

  3. Rite im finaly thinking of getting a BMC filter fitted..Is thier anything

    i should be aware off..?

    Looks complicated to fit..i think im going to need some help.

    oil catch tank thing for..what does it do?

    I need a complete break down..Please!

    Cheers!
