    It's a disgrace Mini have got away with this for so long. More "responsible" manufacturers would have issued a recall and replaced the part! Plus I believe the part is currently artificially high in price to help cover their costs !

    It's a health and safety issue and should have been fixed years ago!

    Em, funnily enough with you on this one mate. I'm just hoping that the fixes on the cars are the real deal!
