Mechnic needed in texas ?

Looking for some one that is going to be able to fix my daughters 2007 Mini Cooper s r56 . Have ran out of ideals to make this thing run right going to order new ignition coils next than I am calling uncle. Can travel to San Antonio ,Austin , houston all are with in 2.5 hrs or so . Looking for someone that will not break the bank that knows about mini's . The dealer in San Antonio was nice but they are crazy on parts and labor . Example $450 for valve cover and $300 to install it . I bought it from mini of south Atlanta for just over $300 and had it off and on in less than 30 mins twice .

Thanks in advance
Shad
