⚠️ MINI overview
MINI is engineered by BMW Group; most UK cars are built in Oxford. Petrol Cooper models dominate the UK fleet, with diesel Clubman and Countryman variants adding misfuel risk at the green nozzle.

Fuel system notes
- F56/F55 and related UKL-platform MINIs typically have a rear-seat fuel pump access panel.
- Diesel MINIs use BMW-derived common-rail systems — petrol contamination is high risk.
- Electric MINI models have no fuel tank; see model pages for HV safety only.
