Mini is offering a standard two-year unlimited kilometre warranty, along with 24×7 roadside assistance for the same period. These benefits are transferable with ownership. A service-inclusive plan is also offered for 3 years or 40,000 km, extendable up to 10 years or 1,00,000 km. The warranty can also be extended from the third year, up to a maximum of ten years. The Mini Convertible JCW Pack features a black soft top that can be fully opened in 18 seconds at speeds of up to 30 km/h, with the window bars and side windows lowering simultaneously. The soft top closes in 15 seconds, and it can also be partially opened up to 40 cm, functioning like a sunroof, regardless of speed. Boot space stands at 160 litres with the roof down and increases to 215 litres when the top is closed.
