EPA sticker under bonnet?
Just fishing here...
I will ship my MINI back to the states. I was told that my car must have a DOT sticker in the door (got it!) and an EPA sticker in the engine compartment--should say "catalyst" on it. I cannot find the EPA sticker. It is a CooperS, so the underbonnet area is cramped.
BUT, I've got to find it! My MINI's future depends upon it! Help.
If y'all could toss me a clue here, I'd be grateful. Maybe I'm just blind, or too drunk...

Keep looking....no more beers !
Lift up the bonnet, and look on the driver's (left) side of the car, where the bonnet strut attaches to the body. It is outside the engine compartment, on a vertical surface, above the black plastic fender liner. You can't miss it! A black sticker with white lettering. Next to the fill cap for the windshield washer fluid.

So basically... 02-03 MCS did not get stickers, just cats. It wasn't until 04+ that they got stickers too. WTF. I am the proud owner, however, of a certification of EPA compliance from BMW. The shipping folks here said that little piece of paper will suffice.
Without the sticker, I suppose I could try to look cool, lie and say it's "Euro-spec". Hmm...

While shipping my car from Sicily, the shipping company told me that BMW Corp. is notorious for "forgetting" the EPA sticker on US spec cars destined for european delivery . Defenitely make several copies of the Certificate of Origin (which states US spec manufacture) and also see if the shipping company or dealer can get a quick shipment of the actual sticker to you. Sure it will all work out for you and you will get your car back to the States.
Cheers!
