You still had 2 years left on the warranty, why not use it?

My nearest Mini dealership is over an hour away and it was really starting to look like I was going to be spending a lot of time going back and forth to it. The clutch was starting to have serious issues and the transfer case was starting to make nasty noises at highway speeds. With only 14K miles on the car I figured it was a losing battle.

I traded it in for a brand new Subaru Xv Crosstrek and fortunately didn't lose anything on the deal, as I had gotten an excellent deal when I bought the Mini.

The dealership people pronounced it the ecks vee way. It stands for "crossover vehicle" as opposed to a roman numeral.
