    There's a saying 'you can't polish a turd', and you can't turn the MINI's stereo into something decent for £40, its still crap it just has a bit more bass.

    The MINI stereo is pants, the majority of OEM systems are pants. To get good sound you need to go aftermarket.

    The best way to upgrade is to fit a good set of component 6.5" in the front and some compact subs in the rear. Tap into the rear signal at the point where you 'channel swap' and fit a line out convertor and take that feed to a 4 way amp.

    The alternative to the compact sub rears is a full size boot sub. Hell, if money is no object then fit a full sound/time alignment processor like a Audison Bit One.
