Just watched Mr. Pitney state the wrong facts on the Warranty for the MINIs. He said 3yr/36k for both warranty/maint. service. He must of been flustered when they asked him why it was close to last on the JD power survey for reliability!! :???:

Yup he was definitely flustered while avoiding the JD Powers question.

Nothing new to us in the interview - same old "starts at 17K, makes you smile, 6 airbags, limited production to keep the market strong" stuff.

No mention of rear fogs or windshields though...
