MINI Car Warranty Quote
With a MINI car warranty that covers both parts and labour, you can avoid worrying about unforeseen repair expenses.
When the British Motor Corporation first started producing the MINI, it was a line of compact, useful vehicles. However, BMW acquired the Rover Group - including the MINI marque - in 1994, and launched the modern MINI as a separate brand in 2001. MINI continues to be one of the most sought-after auto brands in the UK because of its fashionable appearance and reasonable price.
The classic MINI is fun-loving and retro, and it comes in a range of body styles to fit every taste. There is a MINI out there for everyone, whether you're looking for a sporty coupe, a roomy SUV, a classic hatchback, or a breezy convertible.
We at MotorEasy guarantee that you can select the MINI warranty that best suits your unique needs. Read on to find out more about the different MINI warranty coverage options and how to get a MINI warranty extension.

MINI reliability: common MINI repairs
The MotorEasy Reliability Index is a comprehensive measure of a car’s dependability. It was calculated by analysing the frequency and cost of repairs across more than 1,200 models. The intent here was to reveal some of the hidden costs of ownership, as well as the likelihood of something going wrong. Each model is given a reliability score ranging from -100 (red), for a high frequency and/or high cost of repair, through to +100 (green), where there is a low frequency and cost of repair.
The index also includes model-specific data on:
- The typical repairs needed for each model, including the percentage of claims for engine, gearbox, electrical system, suspension, braking system and fuel system repairs
- Common repairs you would be covered for with a MINI warranty
- The average cost for each of the above types of repairs

MINI Warranty FAQs
How much warranty do you get on a MINI?
When you purchase a new MINI, it comes with a MINI 3 year warranty with no mileage limits. MINI offers three levels of warranty coverage, though only the most basic option is available for vehicles with over 100,000 miles. To keep your warranty valid, it’s important to remember that you'll need to follow the manufacturer’s servicing guidelines. And if you’d like to extend your MINI warranty, you can choose between a 12-month annual policy or a flexible monthly plan.
How long does a MINI warranty last?
A MINI extended warranty provides coverage for 12 months, or you can take an ongoing monthly policy. In both instances, your car will need to have done less than 100,000 miles. In comparison, a MotorEasy MINI extended warranty offers more flexibility, with coverage lasting up to 3 years or the option of an ongoing monthly plan, giving you greater peace of mind.
What does a MINI warranty cover?
The level of cover you choose for your MINI depends on the warranty plan you select. They have three levels of cover as laid out below:
- MINI comprehensive warranty: This plan provides extensive coverage for most mechanical and electrical components of your MINI and is the only option that includes wear and tear protection.
- MINI named component warranty: Covers a more limited range of parts and excludes wear and tear.
- MINI driveline warranty: Focuses solely on key components such as the engine, transmission, and drivetrain, without wear and tear coverage.
You can take Comprehensive or Named Component if your car has covered less than 100,000 miles. Driveline will cover any MINI that has done over 100,000 miles. You can also choose a £0 or a £100 excess amount to lower the cost of your warranty.
What’s covered in a MINI warranty from MotorEasy?
A MotorEasy MINI extended warranty covers all the same things as above, but with the addition of:
- Emissions failures
- Overheating failures
- Air conditioning issues
How much is a MINI extended warranty?
Firstly, that depends entirely on which level of cover you choose: Comprehensive, Named Component, or Driveline - and which policy excess you select. We like to keep things easy so - we’ve done the homework for you!
Our most recent research suggests that a 3 year old MINI Cooper SD OR MINI Convertible Cooper S Would cost £932 (based on comprehensive cover with £0 excess). At the time of our latest comparison, a similar MotorEasy warranty with £0 excess cost nearly half the price, at just £478.
In the event of a claim, you also won’t have to pay the £250 excess fee as detailed in MINI’s low cost warranty option. In contrast, a MotorEasy warranty gives you the flexibility to choose a modest repair contribution of £0, £25, or £50, as a way to lower the cost of your premium.
All things considered, that means a MotorEasy warranty compared to a MINI cooper warranty is:
- Less expensive
- Won’t hit you with an expensive excess fee
- Gives you more flexibility to choose a modest repair contribution to lower your premium cost
- Gives you interest free instalment options
- Is trusted by over 1.2 million motorists
