You won't have too many problems with the Mini JCW: all the fittings are solidly bolted together, there are no rattles and the fit and finish is excellent throughout the cabin.
The Mini performs well in reliability and customer satisfaction surveys: it came 24th out of 100 models in the 2008 JD Power survey, with most owners reporting trouble-free ownership. As a brand Mini performed well when compared with rivals, finishing 8th out of 28 car makers.
