3 year lease is coming to an end.
My three year lease is finally coming to an end. Owning a MINI had its ups and downs, but it was definitely and overall positive experience. I'm thinking about writing a long-term review of the car, so I'll save my final feelings about the car for later.
My question to you all...
What are the types of things I have to be worrying about before I return the car? It has its fair share of paint chips and door dings, but does anyone know MINI's policy on "normal wear and tear"? I really can't afford to have any unexpected fees when my lease is up, so I want to know well in advance if I need to make a trip to the body shop. Any and all words of wisdom will be appreciated!

First off you stated, that owning a MINI has its ups and downs. You didnt own the MINI, you leased it. Sorry but I hate it when people say they own a car they are leasing.
Back on topric.....take it to an independent shop and have them do a pre purchase inspection on it or even better yet, give the mechanic the MINI checklist and have him/her look at everything that is on the checklist. Get anything fixed by the independent shop. The dealership will charge you way more.
