    Were you able to watch Autoextreme last sunday afternoon? Pinakita yung 2 minis smoking the tracks. Plus they also showed some of the minis parked there during the event. They also interviewed Mr. Dennis D. the club president.

    Hello mini pilipinas family;

    I was finally able to come over to your EB last Saturday.

    I am impressed (if not envious )with the minis I have seen over there. Equally impressive are the hospitality of the people there as represented by batman and friends. Sorry po, I have problems with my memory retention & I almost always fail in recalling the names of people being introduced to me.

    I am looking forward to completing my mini project. Expect my new baby & I to join you in future activities and formally join your club.

    To all the ladies and gentlemen of mini pilipinas, a big thanks for your warm welcome.

    MirokC/byker

But Honda kept on improving its cars while the makers of the Mini didn't. Plus mis-management, poor product planning, poor product quality and labor union troubles led to the demise of the great British car manufacturer.

    Reviving this thread as a friend of mine is thinking of buying the Mini (basic or entry level model).

    Questions:

    1. How expensive is the PMS? How often?
    2. Are parts readily available?

    Just to update, the Mini costs about 2M. the Mini Cooper S is 2.5M or so.

    I'm in the process of replacing my Supercharger as you can see in my Avatar, when it comes to parts and availability its tough and expensive Mini to maintain, the Supercharger cost new is about $2000.00 (dollars in US) imagine here in the Philippines.. only the rich people can afford it--- no offense but its true I had a hard time finding a replacement, i'm newbee here so any suggestion?

    The Water pump is coupled and run by the Supercharger, when the engine overheat most likely due to the PTO (Power-take-off) gears are gone and wasted, meaning the Supercharger has to be rebuilt or replace... good luck folks.... Happy Mini Motoring
