JD's thoughts

I would like to share my feelings on the current situation with the rest of the Group Buy peeps...

Ultimately I have the greatest amount of respect for ButtonIt & Rakey for their commitment in organising, and furthermore maintaining this endeavour! Every enquiry I have made, to these guys, has been politely received, and any help I have had to offer during the ongoing maintenance of the original thread has been appreciated! Cheers Lads !!!

I have the deepest sympathy with those of involved who are now impatient, frustrated, or p***ed off about the supply (I use the word ‘supply’ to imply the manufacturer not Prestons/Dale) of the skirts… I was stung with a large credit card bill this month and contemplated weather my £250-odd quid was in the wrong place. I also remember wondering if the skirts or my MCS would arrive first… my MCS now has 2100 miles on the clock in 6 weeks ownership. I am inclined to believe jimimac’s point about this groupbuy…although having waited 6months for my car I don’t think anything is beyond our manufacturer!

I will be frank… I hope my skirts (er… I mean our’s(- with mine 1st obviously )) turn up before the best part of summer is over, lets be honest that's when all our Mini’s will look their best !

I’m impatient, and a little peeved, but I tell myself all good things etc, and remind myself of what my dealer wanted for them when I enquired about having them fitted at delivery!

I hope others will share my viewpoint.
