Picked it up yesterday just after lunch time and so far I LOVE MY FIRST MINI

07 Chilli pk Cooper (I had planed last year to buy the disel one but found out just befor ordering there was a new model on route... saw the reported fuel efficency of the new cooper so went with that instead.... So my Cooper was the first cooper i drove....really liked the drive of the one D so figured I would also like the cooper!!

Not sure how I did deal wise I did not have a trade in and only got TLC for 5 years for free along with some mini gimmicks ( candles, cups, pens notebook etc.) along with full tank of petrol Looking at other peoples posts not sure how that rates?

so far in my 20hr ownership I've covered just under 200km...and have to say love the cruise control feature....and the attracted attention...My Mom went to the showroom with me and was embarrassed on the drive home by the people on the roads looking at the shine of the lightning blue ( Colour of which after some worry I love IN THE FLESH SO TO SPEAK) it increased the smile on my face to see people looking...I even saw kids pointing it out to their moms as I passed ...
