Here's a video for a 2011 Mini Cooper S 60K Service and serves as a guide for how to change your oil, cabin air filter, intake air filter, spark plugs and ignition coil maintenance repair. This video shows the entire process: lifting the car, draining oil, prepping new parts and filling/check the oil, replacing spark plugs, coils and filters. This how to guide works for all model years of the Mini Cooper R56 Hatchback (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013). It's not a convertible or clubman or countryman, but should be similar processes. Should also work for JCW and coupe models.
Even if you're just looking for a video on how to change the oil on your 2011 Mini Cooper S, this is the best oil change guide. It never hurts to check your filters with every oil change.

Parts List
----------------------------------
4.4 Quarts - 0W-30 Synthetic Oil - 83-21-5-A2A-F99 -
(You'll need 5 bottles as each bottle is 1.05 qt)
Alternative choice: amzn.to/3xubmph
Oil Filter Kit - 11-42-7-622-446 amzn.to/4ag9oaB
Air Intake Filter - 13-71-7-568-728 - amzn.to/4aAGaDa
Cabin Air Filter - 64-31-9-127-516 - amzn.to/4aDrseJ
Bosch Iridium Spark Plugs - amzn.to/3Vu2l67

Bosch Ignition Coils - amzn.to/3vkwj1R
In my opinion, do not buy any OEM parts online, just go to your local Mini/BMW dealership parts department where the pricing will be competitive and they will likely match any online OEM pricing that is lower.
I went with Bosch aftermarket plugs and coils because OEM was significantly more expensive
