Yes Winston we are alike, I do not post very often but I read a lot, you and a couple others in the past have posted genuinely uplifting comments that work for me, they give me a mini (intended) confidence boost. It’s hard to make the mini a mess whatever spec you go for, I like your combo there and I agree with Kezo, it will not stand out as much as the BRG. The demo JCW where I ordered was almost your combo, it had that multi coloured roof though and does look good, I had second thoughts, I nearly went white with black roof and mirrors as it really did look nice but stuck to my original pick. Great news, I went to a Marshalls and got 500 off the adv payment. I’m glad you mentioned about the Harmon Kardon issue as I would t accept without it so to make sure I’ll let them know now so that they can keep it in the build till its got it. If I get to September I get another 200 gcb on top amking 550, with the 500 off and the 750 new car thing that’s amazing, say what you like about motability, most of it most of the time is brilliant. Anyway, hope it knocks you out when you see yours in the flesh and you have the best 3 years runaround you’ve had so far.
Aww thanks mate! That’s really nice of you to say that and I’m over the moon for you getting the car, the discounts and fingers crossed that extra £200 off. In todays crazy World it all adds up ?? That mini configurator can lead you down a rabbit hole eh? Lol i had Black in mind from Day 1, I’ve had 3 White cars In a row but in the dealership was a Cooper S in that new Nanuq white which is almost identical to the Onyx White I have on my Tiguan and I was sold So sometimes the more time and options you have the more our minds can work overtime going into every possible scenario – as you said I don’t think there is a Bad colour combo on that car , I even think that bright yellow colour looks good ( altho it was never in my thoughts lol ) Dont really have anyone in my life to bounce off on, share my thoughts or concerns on this car so thanks to all who has taken the time to reply ?? i know for a fact your Black JCW will look the berries with the subtle Red trim it comes with It’ll be an emotional day ( what day isn’t ) when I hand over my current car but I’m looking forward to my first drive now ?
Nice one Winston.
<p style=”text-align: left;”>The configurator is addictive. Funny how people see things differently and how much taste s differ too, i think the green is more in your face ha,, either will be great though, I like the white myself.</p>
Hope you love it and manage to keep as many points off your license as is possible. Happy motoring.
