I just purchased my used 2008 Mini Cooper S. It did not come with an owner's manual and I need one to figure out all the bells and whistles on this little darlin! Can anyone tell me where I can purchase one online? Google searches didn't produce much at all. Also, there was only 1 key with our mini and we would like to purchase another. Anywhere online we can purchase the above mentioned items? Thanks for your help!

 

Hello!

If you log in to the MINI USA Owner's Lounge, you should be able to find the manual there. MotoringFile also has them: http://www.motoringfile.com/motoringfile-downloads/

You'll be able to get another key at the dealer, but be warned...they aren't cheap.

Congrats on your new MINI, and...

 

Congrats and good luck.

 

try this, I don't think you'll find many differences

(save and then open was needed on my machine but maybe that was just me)

Go to YOUR MINI link for PDF download of owners manuals. All models from '02 to '11.
Use your VIN to create an account.

The key is a dealer only item. If you have comfort access then you will also have to take the car to the dealer to have it programmed.
Did you look in the secret compartment? Or maybe try to contact the PO and see if they still have it.

 

I don't know anything about a secret compartment. Where is that?

 

Between the top of dash and glove box. Press on the panel and it will open up. I believe that is where the Multi-CD changer would go if you had it.
