The ashtray/coinholder is shown here (as is the illuminated "joystick" for the Nav and stereo controls.

Ooo copying their BMW's by fitting a joystick to control the stereo/Nav.

Paul · Sep 25th, 2006, 06:05 PM

Yep, it's a bit fiddly though. So I hear anway.

miniman23 · Sep 25th, 2006, 06:08 PM

Paul · Sep 25th, 2006, 06:21 PM

The PDC display is apparently cool on the sat nav, nice touch.

PDC??? What is that sorry not familiar with the abbreviation I'm learning all along.

Paul · Sep 25th, 2006, 06:27 PM

I think that joystick is what they call iDrive, well part of it anyway, correct me if I'm wrong.

Paul · Sep 25th, 2006, 08:03 PM

Not exactly idrive, but close. Sort of a mini-idrive system.

obehave · Sep 25th, 2006, 08:33 PM

Geez Paul! Get it right.
You forgot the passengers compartment:

Paul · Sep 25th, 2006, 09:20 PM

lol, that drops down from the passenger visor.

Olly. · Sep 25th, 2006, 10:20 PM

Is that the folding mirrors button that I see to the bottom right of the gearstick?

Maybe the mystery button between the DSC & Sport isn't solved

Olly. · Sep 25th, 2006, 10:53 PM

Paul, do you know if you don't spec the smokers pack will you still get the 12v socket in place of the lighter?

Paul · Sep 26th, 2006, 06:42 AM

You'll get a 12v in the front instead of the lighter yes.

Ralph'sPop · Nov 25th, 2006, 01:20 AM

Paul, I seem to remember that my previous MINIs had another 12v socket (pretty obviously NOT for lighting ciggies) in the boot. On this one ('06 convert), I can't find it. Or is it goofy ole me?

The 12v in the convertible boot is at the rear of the boot towards the left. Look over the edge of the sill around where the tailgate left hinge is. It is described in your owners manual.

DAVIDOYO · Nov 25th, 2006, 04:00 AM

Can you still fold the mirrors manually without the folding mirrors option ?

Keep up

, you use the electric mirror control mounted on the drivers door to fold in the mirrors.

Mystery button remains just that.............................
