Could not find this on a search buy how many miles can I expect on a new MINI that should be delivered in the next few weeks? This is my first MINI and not sure what to expect.

There have been threads here on this very subject over the years, and the general consensus is "usually fewer than 10 miles, almost always fewer than 20 miles".

Thanks. That is what I would expect but wanted to check it out. My MA says about 8-10 but just wanted to defer to the wisdom and experience of the board.

Mine had 11 on it. I guess it all depends on how far from the boat your car is parked eh?

Also don't forget that if you have accessories added at the dealership that could add mileage as well. My car was driven down the street to have the Invisishield installed on the car. My dealer does not do that work but subs it out.

Your title docs may reflect landed mileage and not the mileage included in the accessory install work.

Here's an old thread about it:https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...delivered.html

Ours had 10, 8, 7 and 5. Oldest, to newest, its getting lower each time.
