Hi, we've been looking at 2002 Mini one but it has no air conditioning. Is it feasable to do a retro fit if I managed to get the parts needed. Is all the wiring there? Just trying to find out if it's viable.
Thanks Rich

I didn't think that was possible. I thought it was standard equipment.
Here is a link (http://motoringfile.com/files/2003MINICooperCooperS.pdf) to the owners manual, and it indicates that the AC is standard.

All sorted now, we've got one with AC now makes more sence:)
Scottinbend, some of the early one's do come without AC

here is the installation of Air con
#
Step 1
Measure the area you want to cool and calculate the size of the air conditioner you will need. (See below)
#
Step 2
Determine where you want to install the air conditioner and measure the window opening. The air conditioner you buy needs to fit into the opening and all air conditioners aren't the same size.
#
Step 3
Install the mounting brackets that came with the air conditioner unit (be sure to follow the manufacturer's directions).
#
Step 4
Slide the air conditioner into the window opening and attach it to the mounting brackets (again as per manufacturer's instructions).
#
Step 5
Lower the window down onto the top of the unit.
#
Step 6
Pull out the extensions on each side of the air conditioner and attach them to the window frame.
#
Step 7
Use a piece of foam (may be provided by the manufacturer), seal between the top of the air conditioner unit and the window.
#
Step 8
Attach the drainage hose (if supplied) to the outside of the air conditioner.
#
Step 9
Caulk around the outside of the unit to help keep the warm air outside.
#
Step 10
Plug in your air conditioner, turn it on and enjoy that cool air.
