What kind of MINI do you have? What kind of mods are you looking for?

If you do it, it won't automatically void your warranty, but they can deny certain parts of the warranty based on your mods.

Say you have an intake and pulley and you blow a head gasket... that won't be covered because they'll claim your mods did it. Now, if you had an intake and pulley and your parking brake gives out, then it's still covered because there's no way that your mods could have caused it.
