    "Every aspect of the experience was a pleasure. After a my previous experience at a dealer for a well known brand of car that begins with the letter "T" I had lost all faith that I could have a positive experience. You reminded me that buying a car doesn't have to be an appendectomy without anesthesia."   –   Jeffrey W., Charleston, SC Jan 8, 2012

    "Billy Hamby worked with us and he was awesome. We've bought a fair share of cars over the years, and he was truly one of the best representatives to work with us ever. Buying a new car can be a stressful experience, regardless of your credit or financial situation, and Billy made ours great. In fact, all of the staff members that we encountered during our visit (including Billy) were very kind and professional. We'd definitely buy again from Mini of Chas!"   –   MINI Owner, Columbia, SC Nov 26, 2011

    "I had been experiencing some rather inconsistent (hard to diagnose) issues with very slight engine hesitations, particularly on cold starts, usually at slower speeds but also sometimes during acceleration at higher speeds. Stuart halped narrow down some of the issues and documented my comments. In the service bay, they came up with some ideas, he asked if they could keep it overnight and try to see if their diagnosis was correct and verify that they got the problem, which they did. For a less "symptomatic" problem, I felt they did a great job of finding the problem and resolving it. The issue was the timing chain pre-tensioners and they were replaced. I also appreciate Stuart's advice, I've always been a car guy and a backyard mechanic, so I always have a lot of questions about these little 4 cylinder motors and a lot of the mechanical workings of the Mini Cooper and he's always has great knowledge about the inner-workings."   –   Edward K., Mount Pleasant, SC Jan 20, 2012

    "Prompt and courteous as always, and still like the little touches (car wash!). However, would like to have been told upfront that this checkup (the 30K mile one) would not be covered under warranty, which expired just two months ago. Ended up costing less than they estimated after I asked about it, and they found some things that needed fixing that were covered under warranty, still... Also would like to know if the coolant leak they fixed is related to a previous coolant leak we brought the car in for. Not something you'd want to have a recurring problem with, since MINIs tend to run hot."   –   MINI Owner, Charleston, SC Dec 13, 2011
