I'll bump this thread up....

As I'm looking for the same. And I'll add NW (out toward Lowell??) to the mix.

MINI of Peabody is a wonderful dealer and I've always been happy with their service. BUT as my 2002 MCS has gotten way out of warranty (92K now) and the little problems are mounting, I have a hard time with BMW/MINI service rates of $115/hr.

So, anyone know of a reputable independent garage that is MINI-aware?

Thanks, but....

Worcester isn't anywhere near Wellesley, or Stoughton, either.
