Easy fix.
Just take the door card off & tension up the pull rod that links your handle to the door lock mechanism. Fix it before someone breaks the handle by pulling to far.

You really need to get yourself a manual one day... :)

haha thank you! and i have 2 manuals the haynes one and another with a red clubby on the front! alas neither had decent door internal pics!

also another quickie also related to the wonders of mini security! what are the locks usually attached to the door with? my drivers side lock is twisting inside the hole it's in when i turn the key! (a worry but hehe no one knows where the mini is stored at this point in time! muhahaha the bat cave of mystery) aka i hope it doesn't get stolen until i can properly reattach the lock!
