Where is oil dipstick located on a mini cooper 2003?

In a 2003 Mini Cooper, the oil dipstick is located on the right side of the engine bay, near the front. It is a long, thin metal rod with a brightly colored handle, typically yellow or orange. To check the oil level, simply pull the dipstick out, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and then remove it again to read the oil level.
