Those familiar with Minis also know that, even when working properly, the heater/defroster hardy does.... :) BTW, in the province of B.C. the MV Regs require a working defroster....fortunately I have never had to prove the Smith's unit actually is capable of defrosting.

A friend took a nice MK IV Mini to a shop to get an out of province inspection. It failed for what I consider to be jaw droppingly specious reasons. The best one, however, was when the mechanic pointed out that the centre defrost vent was plugged.

Those familiar with minis call that part THE ASHTRAY.
