Hi, and welcome to NMS.

The 53 Plate MINI's should have had most of the problems of the earliest models sorted out.
There are one or two wee niggles any car could have, but seeing as the car is still under warranty (I presume) the dealer should be able to sort out.

Chilli Blue? There's a Chilli Red, Indi Blue, and Electric Blue.
All look good with the White Roof, IMHO.

Our first new model car was 53 plate chilli red One and never had any problems with it ,probably would have never changed it but me like a big kid nagged the better half for a cooper which is 9 months old now and already I want to get another MinI. Once the fever gets you your gripped;)

Sorry meant to say inidi blue with white roof and a chilli pack

you shouldn't have any problems, unless the previous owner couldn't be bother to sort out any wee niggles....

As Duncan says, it should still be under warranty, so just make sure you get it in asap if you find any wee problems...:D

Remember chilli pack only includes AC on the S, not the Cooper.

Watch for sticky rear brakes - quite a common problem. Minis in blue look great - go for it, you won't regret it.

Hey guys and girls...
I picked my MINI up on Tuesday and its been great fun so far.
No sticky brakes thankfully and no other niggly things but it does have 12months warranty anyway.
Thanks for the advice and i look forward to meeting some of you at the various meets etc.
Got my 1st wave from a fellow MINI driver in Paisley.LOL.

Thanks again Guys & Girls
