    I am considering a switch to EV, I need advice from Mini owners

    I am considering switching to EVs but I am quite hesitant, but my dealer suggested I give them another look, especially with current deals offering free chargers, 4 years of free servicing, a year of free insurance, and low APR. We drive about 22k miles a year, and the Mini calculator shows...

    Issue with charging display and wipers

    My daughter took her ride to fix the charging flap issue, and they ended up doing a software upgrade. Now, she can't see the charged percentage on the display, just the fading bars, and the intermittent wiper feature isn’t working either. Has anyone else had these problems? Thanks!
