Current spec is:
Dark Grey Metalic
White Roof and Mirrors (may be tempted with black though)
Chilli Pack
LSD
Heated Mirrors
Chrome interior
Tinted glass
Storage Pack
Anthracite Roof Lining
Colour line dark grey
Piano black Trim
Rain and Light Sensors
Hi Fi System
Deleted model number

Toying with adding the
Leather Recaro Seats and the Web Spoke Alloys

Any thoughts? Specifically surrounding what the standard seats are like as I like mine to be very sporty...oh and has anyone heard the new non HK hifi? Is it as excellent as it should be?

Thanks

Richard

nice spec, but I'd be adding MFSW into that

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

When I spoke to my dealer last Wednesday he said it was the same price - at least in the UK. £150 was it? Dunno what that is in Euros

Any thought on interior colour combos? Colour Line versus seats?

Feck, forgot the spotlights

I have no bloomin' brochure, yet, so I'm kinda vahue on the colourlines

I'm thinking red colourline, with red and black seats, with a view to changing them for the JCW Recaros , front, and maybe rears later on, when they surface?

I think the splash of red inside might be nice?

Are they worth having? or is that a mini2-joke?

well worth having, its one of the few things that is good come trade in time.

the joke is that its the one thing that we always say to add to a car, its a bit of a race to see who can spot it missing first

yes its heavy, but important it goes air mail

lots of options in there, must say that its much better than any other MINI brochure, the fact that you can see all the options more clearly than before
