New engine time

2009 R55 JCW n14
Well, the time has come for a new engine.. #4 cylinder piston failed and scored the wall..
i have ordered a long block from Mini. looked at others, but the cost was 2k less with my discount.
Anyone have experience with this type of replacement?

Less than this option?

If the time comes where I need a new engine, and I pan on keeping the car, I'm either getting a build replacement or doing a full rebuild. Not sure I'd coin up for a replacement engine direct from Mini.

Surely, MINI doesn't manufacture theses engines anymore.

I'm just curious, how many miles did you get on your 2009 JCW before needing a new engine?
I'm around 105K on mine.
