    Hey guys, just thought I'd let you know about our problem!

    Andy was driving on the edinburgh Bypass yesterday, and the engine management light appeared and the car cut the power. He called AA or whoever do MINI's roadside stuff, they said it was the coil pack for cylider 4. MINI now at Peter Vardy's being looked at, and they have given us a courtesy car (at 10 quid a day!)

    Hopefully won't take too long to sort out!

    That's a nightmare. Didn't you only get it recently? In which case I'd be onto the other dealer you got it from to pay for the loan car.

    Got it the end of Feb, and its 3 years old now. Covered by warranty thankfully. To be honest, the sales manager there sorted it to go into today, otherwise it would have been thursday at the earliest

    Sorry to hear that, these I don't think are expensive and quite easy to fit. Anyway it's under warranty so happy days.
