The forecast is pretty awful for tonight & tomorrow so I would be very suprised if it turns out to be ok!!

It will be like christmas when u was a little kid not being able to sleep and getting up early, I was looking at that those other pictures that guy posted, think your pic was better showed the true colour off with the lighting as well. Cant believe it was parked next too a skip, When i go any where in my car i always park it where i think no one else will park then long behold u always get some Fu**er parking to next to u !

When u get chance post some pics and give us a brief review of what u think from being a cooper owner to a s owner

Tell me about it, I probably won't sleep @ all tonight hehe, I never noticed that it was next to a skip! Thats just darn right stupid!!

Its true what you say about parking, even when you go to do a bit of shopping u can come back & find some wa**ker in a people carrier or 4x4 has parked as close as possible to u.

The thing I am really liking about my new car is the white roof (wasn't sure about it when I spec'd the car) but it just makes the car stand out more!! & that is one of the things that has made Mini's so special!!

I will certainly let everybody know what differences I notice between the 2 different cars & I hope I end up saying how amazing the new R56 is

Cheers

Dave,

Relax, there was no hidden charges for me, just a little debate over the change to the TLC. Handover went as smooth as a baby's bum just relax and enjoy it

Cheers pal, I hope the handover goes smoother than my last one, I had problems with the money going through, had to make a few trips to my local bank in Preston (was a nightmare) fingers crossed It should be ok this time.

Dave,

You are quite correct.

After seeing B4mmy's MSC with spots, it does look good.

I've got them on my current R53 MCS, and was a little put off by the price for the R56. But thats all sorted now and I think they'll be £300 well spent.

Good luck on the handover, I'm sure it will go smoothly.

1 hour to go !!!
