      Hi Winston

      I think I’ll probably get mine in September, anything sooner is a bonus.

      I passed a silver one and a metallic beige(not sure on the correct name) yesterday and both looked amazing, I think it’s impossible to get the colour wrong on the JCW.

          Sorry to hear Ben but I can imagine how it’s made you feel.

          I would have picked my nearest dealer and escalated this matter to whoever was in charge and I’m sure they would have made sure that their staff treat you correctly.

          Exceeding a custo.ers expectations is a dying art, I wish they’d bring it back, its wonderful when it happens.

            Nice one Winson.

            How’s the seating situation now, I’m guessing you’ve cracked it. How’s the mpg for you and have you broken the Scottish land speed record yet?

              That video is quality Winston, very tidy drone work my friend. Car looks amazing, I’m so looking forward to having a sunroof for the first time in 20 years or so.

              Sorry to hear about all the hassle you’re having Ben, my next move would be a lengthy email to a mini dealership general manager highlighting what a complete lack of even basic customer service, let alone an attempt by any to go an extra millimetre, to.make sure you they get your business. Clowns all of them. Good luck my friend.

                Nice one Top8Dan, it really does make an improvement, especially on dark colours I think where the chrome stands out more. Brilliant.

                Would you say its a solid glue fix? Like the expensive all over wrap type solid? Like car wash safe?

                ?

                              Can’t wait for mine mate.

                              Happy motoring.

                              Ps. I ordered one of those metal JCW key surrounds from amazon, £16, I won’t be able to fit it obviously but I’ll let you know what quality is like.

                                  Haha still busy driving, I reckon he’s probably just blasting across the Italian border.

                                    Fantastic Winston, I bet you’re still racing around in it right now, I would be.

                                    Looking forward to hearing more and more as you get to know it better.

                                      Yeah I’d be looking forward to the follow up so I’m glad you posted it’s good when people are honest and judge it where it sits in the market and not comparing it much more powerful Audi/BMW’s etc cos they always leave you feeling underwhelmed Thanks very much mate, I’ve already started gutting the current car so ? has gotten real ? l’ll soon let the Italian Job know when I collect it ? hopefully you’re not too far behind ??

                                       

                                      Brilliant pal, I’m on about 8 weeks delivery as it stands, can’t wait.

                                      Agree about that review being unbiased and making it feel like a real world take on what it’s all about.

                                        I don’t know what to say to be honest as with this world wide chip issue, odd things are happening regarding spec on many brands. Without sounding horrible, I’d question the brand knowledge on almost every sales rep I’ve ever met, so your dealer could well be wrong, is it a risk worth taking, absolutely not if it’s a big deal for the driver. My understanding is that it is included.

                                        The reps at the mini place I’ve ordered from are very courteous and treated me like a normal person and customer ( I know, I know), I’ve emailed my contact to ask the question regarding this issue and will post reply when get it.

                                        Would be a.shame if you liked it but didn’t get ot through misinformation.

                                          Yes, saw that one too where he mentioned a follow would be coming, quite like him, will watch more videos of his.

                                          Made up for you for this week my friend, hope its everything you want it to be.

                                            You Hello Qwe2 and other Mini fans, here’s a nice video that touches on the adaptive cruise control, I think it’s very positive, enjoy.

                                              Sorry David, I re read your post, it doesn’t show detailed dimensions, just capacity.

                                                Hope this works, if not autotrader is a very quick way to find all.car details, enter make and model, look for dimensions.

                                                  Good luck with the test drive, make sure to clarify regarding the cruise control because I’m pretty sure it isn’t adaptive.

                                                    40mpg as well, like Dan, I’m quite shocked at this, it gives me hope that I won’t go skint when I get mine.

                                                    My auntie gave me an orange mini 1000 in 1981 as my first car, I wasn’t old enough to drive it yet but became proficient at reversing it 6ft and pulling forward again on the drive over 6 months period till I could learn to drive.

                                                    A few cars later I had a 1275gt, we had it sprayed red with while wheels and mirrors and the 1275gt stripe in white too. Had a black mini Mayfair run around once too and an MG metro red/orange ish and a silver MG metro turbo. Did quite well till got to the growing up stage of life.

                                                    All came to an abrupt change of pace a while back, grab life with both hands while tou can. Thanks to the scheme I’m about to relive my motoring youth, can’t wait.

                                                    Hope you all having a pain free, stress free day, I’ve started mine off like a dream with Bacon and tomato butty, lovely.
