Sorry Fergal, missed your post - only seen it now!
No, I did'nt call Kevin O Learys, everyone thought I would be mad to drive all the way down there for a car (prob take me 4/5 hours!) and I was a bit concerned with having problems aftermarket and trying to get the dealers up this end to take it in for me if I did have a prob.
So as of yesterday I have ordered my new car, got a few more bob for the trade in but have decided to sell it myself so it will be going into the carzone next week!!!
I've been given delivery date of 3rd week in January and I have a month to change my spec if I want to. My new spec is below:
Mini Cooper S
Laser Blue w/ white roof etc.
Bonnet stripes
Chili Pack
Sunroof
Punch Black Leather
Heated seats
Chrome line interior & exterior
Fluid Silver Trim
Multifunction steering wheel
Also getting driving lamps and iPod connection dealer fit. Might change the wheels if finances permit but i doubt it!!!!
