To flat tow your 2013 Mini Cooper, you will need a diode wiring kit, and the 4-pin wiring kit you will need is from Roadmaster:

This diode wiring kit is going to protect your Mini's electrical system by preventing any feedback and will power its lights for when you are towing it. Along with the wiring kit you will need a few other parts for your flat tow set-up:
