My mum has just written off her 2011 R56 Cooper, so we're replacing it with a 2019 F56 Cooper (imaginative, huh).

The salesperson has suggested that with her low mileage (7-9k p.a.) the TLC package might not be worthwhile purchasing.

When we bought her 2011 one it seemed a no brainer but I'm after collective thoughts?

Will do some research myself but responses most welcomed!

Tlc is no longer a worthwhile even if you do the milage your only get one service

The first service is not until 2 years & is only a oil change v

Hasn't TLC been discontinued now? Got my Mum a 2019 F56 MCS recently and it doesn't appear to be an option any longer. She also does very low mileage so I'm not convinced it would've been worth having anyway.
