@Centaur one, it's a company car (for my wife) funded through BMW (Alphabet) leasing. We buy all our cars through our local BMW/Mini dealer and get ~10% discount so that's paid for some of the toys!

I usually find that spec'ing them up doesn't result in a huge increase in monthly lease costs since (I guess) the residuals improve with the extra toys (The tax man likes us of course!) :crying:

Not good news, hope it turns up on time for you...do you know if yours will be a 2015 model year? I can't get a straight answer anywhere as to when the 2015 builds start and if there are any changes from 2014 model year.

I suppose I'd expect to see some new options in the web site mini designer when they start making 2015 models (along with higher prices).

As it happens I looked today and I saw "Mini yours interior style fibre alloy"... is that new?

And welcome to the waiting room :)

Yes I saw that, it is new. Wasn't there a couple of days ago. There's no blurb for it either. Looks like brushed metal. Not bad, quite nice.

Welcome to the forum Catflap. Not to put you off, your estimate seems very ambitious. I ordered mine on 31st May and have an estimated delivery of 5th Sept. Although, you could be the lucky!

Thanks - should have locked my wife's laptop away - 10 minutes mouse clicking and that's several thousand pounds worth of extras bolted on!
