You have entered camchain roulette. And piston slap roulette. 

That's a questionable purchase - good luck, you'll need it.

Cracking colour. And if it wasn't mad expensive then it's more Blackpool pier roulette rather than Monte Carlo high stakes . Be reet 👍

Yep, the R56s can’t all be disaster zones. My Neighbour got over 160k miles out of his before chopping it in as it needed a clutch, and he ragged it mercilessly all the time. It did have a timing chain at some point though I seem to remember.

My BINI ownership experience was really positive apart from a dicky air mass sensor (previous model tho). Cheerful place to be at the wheel and good fun on the twistehs.

Don't be harsh. If it weren't for German engineering integrity both me and you would be out of work 😁

Will look into it as clutch is a tad high for my liking too

Hope you enjoy it, they’re great fun and even though they’re everywhere they feel a bit different & interesting.

Lovely looking thing, I've had experience with a petrol prince engine twice and I said never again BUT if it was cheap then maybe....

Would have to be very cheap!

Good luck! You'd not catch me buying one of these, I'm not that stupid 

Looks at L322 outside.🤔
