    Unattended vehicle with the engine running. Isn't that a punishable offense?

    With this type of mindset of waiting two years after Europe received the kit it's no wonder sales are down in U.S. for this premium car company.

    My wife will never go for the price of that. When you figure in the added cost of the new F56 it ain't cheap. If I don't start, deice & warm up Babs MINI then yes it is a punishable offence. :smilewinkgrin:

    I solved that problem by getting mine sheep skin seat covers for her new CM. Other than that just hittin' the deck of a morning starts a whole new day of dodging 'offences'.

    $845 for the entire kit without installation.​

    Unbelievable. So $845 in parts alone, and total cost with installation would probably take it over $1200?
