Looking to buy a newer Mini and what a load of crap is on offer from dealers.
Never seen so much rubbish on sale for a long time.

Every car I have looked at has scratches on, or damages interior, knackered wheels or missing service history.

Why cant people look after them frown

I bought a '11 Cooper S just over a year ago, that was up for £14,700. The spec was perfect for me, but the car needed the front wheels refurbed and two scratches / scuffs removed from the paintwork before it was acceptable. Even then i noticed a few other (more insignificant) scratches once i had got it home.

As another poster has said, they will do nothing other then wash them and put them on the forecourt and get away with as little prep as they can! Find one in a spec that you like and get the dealer to sort the rest.
I have to agree with you, looked at 2 more yesterday, both with scuffed wheels and small dings in the bodywork, will go back and see if they will sort them out for a deal
