Towing for the 2012 MINI Cooper
Need a tow for your 2012 MINI Cooper? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it with a trusted shop and keep you driving meanwhile. If the car is blocking traffic, stay safe first and call for help.
Details the shop needs
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Cooper. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. Its 1.6L 4-cylinder drives through a 6-speed manual.
Who does what
The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We can deliver a rental to you while your car is at the shop. We keep you posted until the car is booked in.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. Add a rental to the same request as the repair. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Car care, briefly
Clear snow off the whole car, roof included, before you drive. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires.
Before the shop starts
Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Want a price?
Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
Request towing
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
