Rachael was very helpful and was able to answer all my questions! Managed to find exactly what I was looking for!

The car had a few dirty marks on it and I have never picked up a new car without a full tank of petrol. It cost me £52 to fill it up on the day I picked it up.

28 March 2026

We can't get the apps to pair together, it's been very stressful having to speak to mini, Ohme, and Eon. We've been on the phone every day to one or the other every day since we've taken delivery of the car, and still no where near sorting problem!
