Kind of annoyed at MINI

Posted by Brian June 26, 2006

My MINI was due for an oil change. I wanted to be sure to get it done, since we’re going on a Big Trip on Saturday.

In the past, I had to drive to Memphis for all service to the car, since the warranty required that service be done at a MINI dealership. But that’s all over now, so I was going to get my oil changed here in Little Rock.

But apparently, nobody carries the oil filter for a MINI. Arrrrgh! I had to drive to Memphis anyway, and pay three times as much for the oil change as it should have cost. I bought 3 filters while I was there. Next time the mechanic says he can’t get the filter, I’ll just hand him one.

    Isn’t there some old country tune about “goin’ ta Memphis?”

    I guess they were talking about for oil filters…
