Seems a long time from going to build to being delivered, mine was about 3 weeks. I also went mad on options on my MC, came out about £24 k bottom line before discount. I have changed the gear lever for a JCW one to match the steering wheel, only a 5 minute diy job
New Blazing Red Mini in Kent on it's way...
Hi to you all,
Just wanted to let you know that my new Mini went to build on Friday and should be with me late March. She will be my 4th Mini, one Cooper the rest Cooper S models.
It has been ordered in Blazing Red, white roof and miror covers with white sport strips on the bonnet and tailgate.
I have gone a bit mad with the options, but they make it sooo appealing, here is the list that I have speced.
Chilli Pack
Comos Wheels
Black lounge leather
Mini off white trim, with glowing red colour line
Nav XL pack
JCW steering Wheel, as I love the red stiching!
Electric folding mirrors
Heated ftront screen
Darkened rear glass
Dimming rear view mirror
Smokers package (not a smoker, but love the closing ashtray to put parking money in)
Rear park assist
LED front lamps, this was added at the last minute, so hope that this was in time, still waiting to hear!
I will post a picture when she arrives, looking forward to it, but will be sad to see my old one go, as this has been the best one that I have owned to date.
Oh well, things have to change.
Love reading posts from other Mini owners, on what they have chosen for their pride and joy.

Hi Blazing Deb
I got my gear lever off EBay for £68 delivered, RRP is £72, The seller has still got them on there, I placed an offer and got it for £64 +P&P. If I was you I would ask your dealer for a good price on it and fit it for free, only a 5 minute job. I am thinking of the pedals as my next mod. The mud flaps are also worth fitting, again a DIY job, took me less than an hour.
