The lack of advertising also irked me: I was lucky in that I just happened to be near the showroom and popped in to admire the cars and look into the regular 'S' special edition car. There was a salesman who I had been dealing with for a while, on and off, and who knew I was looking for a JCW car at some point, but he had never made an effort to contact me. And despite my being a regular visitor to Mini.ca, I had never seen a mention there either. If the fact that there was a regular 'S' special edition hadn't been disclosed on this board, I probably wouldn't have even gone into the showroom that day to see what I could find out about it!
