    I recently bought an '07 Cooper S, BRG/black, 6 spd, and lots of "stuff" This is my 37th car so I have a pretty good idea about the ins and outs, but I still need to know thing. Got a Owner's Manual online but nothing about the radio. It has the big sunroof, leather? (or vinyl), xenons w/washers, heated seats, washers, mirrors (maybe), aux plug, climate control (whoa!), 17" wheels, cruise, button for BT but no BT? BMW/Mini did all the recall stuff for free, timing belt, turbo water pump, heat shield. It seems to run just fine returning 26-27 mpg with my lead foot. The seats get way hotter than my new Audi Q5. Don't know if it has a LSD, but pretty massive torque steer in 1st! I've autoxed all sorts of cars, Miatas, RX-8, Z4, Cayman S, but don't know if I could hold onto this beast... will give it a try in the spring. So, that's it for now.

    Welcome to M/A

    If the drivers seat has a lumbar support knob on the inside of the seatback you have cow hide. If not you have pleatherette.
