You're most likely wearing runflats, therefore...no spare.

If not, check in the spacious glovebox

S = no spare tire
Time to read the owners manual.

Thanks, guys. Got it. First day with the new Mini? YES IT WAS! ;o) Dur. Turning hot orange in embarrassment. Run flats. BTW, that ain't no spare in the spacious glovebox. It's one of my hubby's cop donuts. Tee hee hee.

Most MCS owners invest in a Slime kit [has a compressor and a bottle of Slime], to dispel most worries when faced with a flat runflat. You can purchase them at most auto stores or at K-Mart for around $30.
