Greetings... just took delivery of a new-to-me 2010 Clubman S, pretty happy with it so far. Have two kids (4 and 7) and they seem to think jumping in and out of the back is pretty fun, I'm actually impressed with how much room is back there, having sat in a normal MINI Cooper before..

I've been searching/reading here, but wanted to do my proverbial shout out as well. Anyone else on the board in the Denver area? Also what is this Insp2 I keep reading about... feeling like I should get one. Is that at the dealers only? there are only 2 here, and they are both pretty far away from home & work, prefer the independents or DIY most of the time.

I don't have any prior FWD experience, all my modding the last 10 years has been on Toyota 4x4's, mostly Land Cruisers. Still have one, but we picked up the MINI to save a little on gas & balance out mini van life with something a little more fun to drive. And that it is... here are a couple pics

 

Nice looking MINI! Welcome to the club:-)

 

Hi and welcome. If your ride did not come with Owner's Manuals get a set. The only way to get the best from your purchase. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, MINI's are exotics and need to be treated as such. Insp2 is the major service. Sequence is Oil service, Insp 1, Oils service, Insp 2, Oil Service, Insp 1, Oil service etc etc..
Hope you enjoy your ride as much as we (MMF and I) do ours!!

 

thanks guys. any recommendations for where to get the owner's manuals? what about factory service manuals, do you guys have those too?

 

Welcome!

I've read that you can download a .pdf file of the owner's manual at miniusa.com, if you register as a member with your vin.

The best manual is the Bentley manual.

The factory doesn't print a shop manual.
