Today I'm having the Mini Cooper and guess what?
It doesn't start. Called BMW assistance at 14:00, they got back to me 15 minutes later and now I'm waiting.
This is the first time I need them. Let's see how fast they can serve me.
My previous MB E-class had a subscription to the assistance on a more than regular basis, luckily for me they always had a very quick response time of less than an hour.
Continuing the wait....
Will keep you posted on response time!

I've used the BMW assist in the past (for a puntured RFT that almost came off the rim) and they were prompt, professional and courteous.

Good luck!
