No worse than any other "BLMC" product designed since 1958. I mean the gearbox issues the petrol version had was a nod back to the Metro Turbo, the power steering issues were probably related to the fact that the electric power steering was a Lucy's Car braking Spin off. Head linings. That seems to be a rover thing. Electrics and BCM, well yes. Shit occasionally. Nothing particularly high tech though. Just painful to fix.

Yes, and imagine how ragingly shit the BINI would have been had it been made by Rover, with the K Series. Can you imagine the levels of apologism and back-pedalling? "But...but, it won a design award!" "But, but...it's always the inlet manifold gasket and never HGF! WHY DOES EVERYONE HAT ROVER?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!! MEDIA CONSPIRACY! MEDIA CONSPIRACY! WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" "Nothing wrong with my K Series, everyone else is wrong, they should all be checking their oil and coolant levels every time they go out like it's nineteen-fifty fucking seven" Foam, foam, fucking foam. egg, Lacquer Peel, Bamboocarman and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting - tow bar on those is just bolted to rear crossmember. So presumably that's chassis rust It's mega thick steel on that part of the chassis. It would be hard to actually rust through! Maybe it's the body mounts under the boot floor. They can rust there Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
