Default Would you buy one with this problem?

Hi.
I'm thinking abut buying a 2011 base Mini Cooper (47 000 km) and looking at the car's file, I've noticed the car was at the dealership a month ago where they replaced the eccentric shaft (part 11-37-7-533-888) under warranty. The car is still under warranty till 07.2015.
Should I buy it or should I stay way? Was that issue serious and should I expect more bad things once it out of warranty?

Thanks a lot.

If you really like it then get it since it's under warranty for a few more months.

I really like it, I was just curious to see if that was an issue I should be concerned about.

Thanks.

I bought a 2006 Mini Cooper " S " convertible knowing it had clutch and transmission problems. I had both replaced at K&M Transmissios and it now runs GREAT.. Love it !
