    Hi all just got a 2006 mini cooper s. Looking for somewhere near Glasgow or Falkirk that can service or repair my mini cooper s.

    For example service which includes servicing supercharger.

    A place that can diagnose fault reliably and maybe offer tuning advice.

    Someone that knows there stuff!

    Anyone know anywhere?

    Cheers all

    Another vote for Douglas and his team at B&M, they’ve seen 3 of my minis so far for various things and I just had my R53 MOT’d there yesterday.

    Thanks very much everyone. Sounds like Douglas at b and m might be the guy.

    I can give you the details of the lads that look after all our MINIs that are based near Falkirk. Very good mechanics and I’ve never had an issue with them over the years. They fit modified parts too if that’s what you fancy but they don’t do any ‘extra’ tuning (mapping etc).
    My last R53 with a few sensible mods made 226bhp and that was without injectors, map or manifold.
    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.
