Just thought I'd start a quick thread detailing my new purchase I popped into BMW to have a steering wheel trim replaced on my 1 series, and whilst I was waiting I popped over the car park to the MINI showroom where they had put their demo cars on display a couple of days early. I instantly fell for the car and it's massively improved interior - personally I also think it's a great looking car too. I ended up talking numbers with a salesman and before I knew it I was seriously considering making a purchase! I slept on it for all of 24 hours and yesterday I put a £500 deposit down to secure an order (13/03/14). I am expecting delivery to be the end of April or the beginning of May..... The spec I have ordered is as follows: Cooper S Thunder Grey White Roof / Mirrors 18" Cone Spokes in White Leather Cross Punch Carbon Black / Carbon Black MINI Yours Off White Interior Pack - Interior trim (off white) - MINI Excitment Pack Media Pack XL - MINI Navigation System XL - Enhanced Bluetooth with USB audio - MINI Connected XL Chilli Pack - Multifunction controls for s'wheel - Floor mats - Passenger seat height adjustment - Storage compartment pack - MINI Driving modes - Rain sensor with auto headlight activation - Air conditioning, dual zone automatic - Interior lights pack - LED fog lights Sport Suspension JCW Steering Wheel Electric Folding Mirrors JCW Roof Spoiler Panoramic Electric Glass Sunroof Darkened Rear Glass Front Centre Armrest Anthracite Headlining Cruise Control with Brake Function LED Headlights with Cornering function Harman Kardon Hi-Fi Heated Seats Here are a couple of images taken from the configuration site: I will update as and when I know more in terms of a proper build week etc, but I'm very eager to get in the car ASAP!!!

Thanks Yeh the Clubman was pretty awesome - shame to see it go really, but I felt as if I'd taken it as far as I could without spending stupid money!!
