If you learn to do some of your own work, it's pretty cheap. Oil filter for $6.00, five quarts of synthetic oil for $35.00, and you're good to go. The dealerships will likely be more expensive. Labor is the big cost. You can also check out some of the Mini Cooper forums like North American Motoring to learn a lot more.
