Can I ask anyone with this car to comment on their experience
I ask because after a huge period of looking at everything available I keep coming back to this car.
Forget range I am not interested in range we have had an EV for too long for range to be an issue. I know there are some who wake up in the middle of the night and want to drive the M25 I am not one of them
I am just happy to wake in the morning on a regular basis.
thing is I think this is a good well built car
so what do the owners think

I went for British Racing Green with a black roof and mirror caps, and black 17 inch alloys. Dealer also said end October.
Hi we test drove the mini , what a great little car loved it , we did order end of April, still waiting,dealer did ring saying might be end of Aug , but the delivery was set for October . Q3 build we missed out on so more likely Q4 build.does depend on what the dealer has ordered and now it’s 0 deposit expect longer waits. Good luck
My wife ordered a Cooper S convertible just over 2 weeks ago with an estimated delivery date middle of September. Found out today that it’s already on the production line.
I so wanted the convertible but my case was lost to my wife sadly hope you ordered the Zesty yellow

The dealer said their electric cars were coming end of October so maybe dealers have their own run at the factory but he was confident so hopefully
mph and it’s the new 2023 colour of nanuq white so that might be interesting

we were definitely having the green but couldn’t decide between white or black roof etc and wandered into other colours at least you get good choice with Mini

Dave
what did you choose and where is your dealer
I have to say we haven’t been as excited about a car for years.

Hi windy
ordered the car from Syntner in Coventry, it’s the level 3 in the blue with the black wheels as u can choose different wheels no extras as it’s got it all bear in mind if used around town it’ll be fine as the range is only 140miles.

She ordered nanuq white with black mirror caps and black bonnet stripes. It comes with a union jack roof.
Elliot haha that’s virtually the same without ours being soft top we have black roof stripes on nanuq white
Dave I am no where near a town never have been and I always get confused when they say town car equally I am no where near a motorway but we always get ma mileage from a car electric or diesel

By the way this was during the 30 hour test drive once we got wheelchair in and everything was ok we needed to make sure of a couple of other things

It’s a much nicer colour in the flesh than it looks online. She was going to get enigmatic black until she saw the white.
I am glad you say this as we unfortunately didn’t see the white we just really liked the combo of the white and black plus it looks like a fresh metallic colour white

1 week later from finding an in stock cancelled order. It will never be this clean again!
Matt, that is the exact combo I’ve gone for! Thanks for posting the photo.
Mini looks great, fantastic colour, if it were mine I’d be washing and polishing it regularly. Great to see people putting pictures of their new cars on this forum.

The Motabilty saleswoman at the dealership had one in the colour and as soon as my wife saw it she was hooked.
Matt I love if that was exactly what we thought we wanted but changed at last minute
that’s what Mini is all about I guess individuality

Update
delivery has been bought forward to 3rd week in September that will be just 7 weeks from order

Hi friends!After rescheduling my test drive for today, I have decided to place an order and the dealership actually processed the order of my Mini today for a possible last week of November/early December delivery!
I have specced the car as above with grey interior and also used Marshalls ‘£500 cashback’ offer as barter, which the salesman agreed and I will receive upon delivery of the car.
After doing a short M25 drive in the car, it was surprisingly comfortable (on 17” alloys) and quite refined. The instant torque is addictive!
Internal touch points were filled with high quality feeling plastics.
I’m ever-so excited!

I thought so too. I was initially considering ‘Island Blue’, which looked quite cool.
Six weeks early!? That’s great news, Windy. I’m now excited for you, ?
