Sorry to say the main issue is it's a mini. :lol: Joking aside alarm going off is a new one to me I don't even think Craig has had this fault :thud:

Mini's sometimes come with the added bonus of a few niggling faults hence why you have to love it to own it. Get the dealer to check it out and like others on here have had to do, don't except it back until your 100% happy.

Hope you get it sorted and get to experience what mini ownership should really be about.

I have had 3 honda's like you say totally bullet proof. Infact I ran one for 3 years and never spent a penny on it. Anyway again I hope they look after you.:thumbs up:

I had the classic windows going down yesterday after my Mrs' little sister repeatedly pushed and held the open button, felt like a right numpty infront of the neighbours going back out to put them up!
