  • History:
    I ordered my MINI with only one package. I thought the cold weather package was a must. All other options we ordered ala cart. My intention was to track this car so I only bought what I felt enhanced its performance.

    After waiting 6 weeks my MINI came in with the wrong dash finish. I refused delivery & waited another 6 long weeks. My MINI was delivered to me on December 13 2005.

    Here's what I got...
    Xenon lights.
    Fogs front & rear.
    LSD.
    CWP, cold weather package.
    MFW, multi function wheel.
    Yep that is it... :)
