Hello all,

I was wondering about people's experiences with dealerships and mods. I know they have been covered a LOT throughout the years (I used the search tool!!). I just wanted to know how it has been going up to now. If someone could give me some names that would be greatly appreciated!

 

I know its not South OC, or even OC for that matter, but I've had great experiences at South Bay MINI. They seem to be very mod friendly, I've taken my car there a few times when I'm in California. My clutch pressure plate failed and they replaced it, the flywheel and clutch all under warranty...at like 30k miles too! :-) They are good people and always very friendly and efficient. Highly recommened.

 

Thank you for your quick response! Anywhere else?

 

Aren't they the one next door to Fireballed? I think Brian (500hp Mini's) daughter works at south bay.
I wish they were closer to me

Yeah I think they are. They always have Fireballed Cars sitting there for sale.

 

so they are extermely 'mod'er friendly? They wont give you a hard time if you have a pully and so forth? They wont blacklist your car's vin as well?

 

No way!

 

Have you tried Crevier Mini/BMW (Santa Ana Auto Mall)? You should ask for Kirk. He now works for the racing division, but they should be able to give you his new number.

 

Seems South Bay Mini won't even look at my car until I have the Unichip removed...not modder friendly at all.
