I don't believe 5 minutes, even at a 'brisk pace' is near enough to get everything up to temperature

That's a short run. Typically I'm out for 20-minutes or so.

It only takes one splash - and that will get the rot started...

I would keep the mini away from any roads where salt (or any de-icing chemicals) are used.

When I was in that position I used a Lanolin based product - on my daily
driver.

Even modern vehicles suffer from this stuff!

But snow! Never miss a chance to hit snow in a mini!
