i have a mini cooper and although it starts first thing in morning no matter what the weather, it can let me down during the day and i sometimes have to get it jump started! why is this happening as the battery is showing a full charge and nothing appears to be left on when i park!

Get both the battery and alternator load tested if okay could very well be a short circuit within the electrical system that's draining the battery.
