Hi everyone, I currently have a Cooper S on order currently showing end of August for delivery :-l
Thunder Grey
Black roof and mirrors
Black Bonnet stripes
17" Black Cosmos
Chilli Pack
Media Pack XL
Satellite Grey Lounge leather seats

I'm 21 and have owned 8 cars prior to this including a 91 Mini Mayfair so I am looking forward to seeing how the new mini stacks up ;-)

Luckily working for BMW I will be able to track (and pester) to see how my car is getting on in the factory

Haha I'm gunning for the record, I think I need to get in contact with Guinness World Records.

I wish I could get them to hurry mine along! Ordered mid may due to arrive end of August, no special treatment for employees :-(

August? Don't worry, you won't be the last person here to get one... (looks around)

I always buy used so I usually buy it keep it a few months and then sod it off so waiting for a car is alien to me haha

I'm 37, bought my first car when I was 21 and have owned a total of three vehicles. I still have two of them.

When I pick up my new car next week I'll have 75% of the vehicles I've ever owned! Need to sell my current Mini though.

I get it all the time at work, people say they can't keep a car longer than 3 years etc and I cant keep one longer than 6 months. My last car I owned for a month and a half.

I have a similar affliction! Although at your current rate you may well have a more severe case of boredofmycaralreadyitis than me

If I manage to keep this the 18 months that my contract lasts for it will be the longest I've ever owned a car by some considerable distance
