R53? What just happened???
So long story short, the hubs and I went to a car auction to find a 1st car for our daughter and he ended up bidding on and winning an '02 Mini Cooper S.
I've quickly come to the realization that these things are like crack.
I'm overwhelmed with trying to find information on part compatibility so figured I'd join a forum.
Cheers!

Welcome to the forum and the MINI adventure. After owning other brands, I was shocked at the endless availability of parts for MINIs.As the prior response mentioned, look through the Gen1 forums for ideas. Most of the vendors that support the forum have a filter to help you limit your search to the parts that work with your specific MINI.
Speaking of crack, we need pictures of the new MINI.

You will have to bring us up to speed and I would get results from an OBDII scan, if it is engine, or electrical problems.
What parts are you looking for and 02 to 06 S part often are interchangeable.

I went for a drive around town yesterday to pick up plates and came home minus a part. Front passenger wheel arch trim. So that was fun.
This is 'it'. No sex or name yet. Maybe it just needs to be a 'Pat'.
Day 1
I'm enjoying reading the posts on the forum. Got wrapped up last night with the things you didn't know about your MINI. Kept running back out to the car with the flash light to try things.
