Lol yep they sure are a scam! They try to charge you for anything. One company tried quoting me £5000! They said my car has been modified by having sports pack arches... I don't see why arches would affect the quote..

Just found out my mini has the paint code : BMW Velvet Blue. Does this mean I now own a Bini?

when the postman drops off your parcel covered in mini spares tape and then sees your mini on your drive. Then he starts talking about my mini and how he used to own one :D!
