    I don't think its been too bad. The supercharger lasted till 191,000 then it started making noise, so I replaced it. Probably still had quite a bit of life left.

    So -
    Supercharger
    brakes twice (replaced rotors once)
    lots of tires
    drivers door actuator once (passenger side dead right now)
    rear hatch mechanism (replaced under warranty)
    rear hatch struts (is that right), replaced twice.
    oil pan gasket
    valve cover gasket
    one windshield
    front bumper cover, and re-painted hood (hit some critters)

    Thats about it - its only been back to the dealer twice - both for the "free scheduled maintenance" a long time ago.

    Still on the original clutch:D

    I've spent more on mods than maintenance!

    Currently the passenger door lock actuator is bad, along w/ the window mechanism on the passenger side. Mini wants $180 for the window mechanism, but it can be fixed w/ a $5 cable. Next weekends project.

    Wow, it's been over a year since I checked this thread. Still going strong at just over 296,000 miles. Hoping to reach 300k in the next couple months.:biggrin5:

    Get two of the 100k badges...

    ... and Squirlz, did you really plan on resetting the trip odo at 111,088.9? I'd have NEVER thought of that (and I can be pretty clever). Kudos!
