Mini Roadside assistance question

Bought a used 2014 R59 2 weeks ago and drove it home 350 miles. Had a blast. Noticed a slight smell of antifreeze yesterday on a 100 mile road trip. This morning I had a decent size puddle of antifreeze on floor dripping off the center of car off exhaust pipe just behind radiator about 10 inches. I have warranty until 4/18. Guessing water pump. Nearest Mini dealer around 85 miles. I do not think i can drive it that far with leak. Does mini roadside service cover hauling it to dealer even if i am not original purchaser?

Yes. I used their towing service a couple times for my used '07MCS.
