Has anyone had a confirmed delivery date for their car with the Storage Comparment pack and what week does the pack get released?

Ive still got a week 7 build with the Pack on mine but im half expecting a delay because im sure that i read somewhere that its from March build only.

From what I understand, the Storage Pack now comes standard as part of the Chilli Pack from 4th March onwards (week 10), so expect to see them popping up in Minis some time in mid-March.

It was confirmed for Week 10 onwards back in November, so it is highly doubtful your Week 7 car will be built with it.

will it be a retro fit so you can get a changer in the dash

Scrogg · Jan 29th, 2007, 06:04 PM

There is nothing that I can find/remember about the whole Storage Compartment Pack being available as a dealer-fit, but MINI did confirm in October that the CD changer will be.

i ordered my new cooper back in november with the storage pack my dealer told me at the weekend i can pick it up on 19th march

Tonyrec · Jan 30th, 2007, 10:02 AM

Dealer still insists that its coming up on the Computer that its a week 7 build with the Pack.

Oh well, i can only wait and keep my fingers crossed.

I checked about my Cooper this morning, and my dealer insists that it's being built next week with the Storage Pack. Originally I was told that it was pushed back to March, but it then jumped forward a month. The only query is now, whether I'm paying for it, as the storage pack is now included in the Pepper pack.

Tonyrec · Jan 31st, 2007, 10:25 PM

I hope that i dont pay for mine either......or should i say, i wont be paying for mine.

The price of the PEPPER and CHILI Packs goes up from Week 10 onwards to include the Storage Compartment Pack. You'll either pay the increased price, or separately for the Storage Compartment Pack, depending on when your cars are actually built.

Just make sure you're not charged for both!

It just seems odd, because with the Pepper pack, it'll now be cheaper from week 10. ie. Pepper plus Storage will then be £30 cheaper. When my order went through it was down as mid-March so the system listed it at the cheaper price, but now that it's been brought forward (if it does turn up in a couple of weeks) the dealers not sure what I'm going to be charged.

This is because the PEPPER and CHILI Packs have been calculated to be 25% cheaper than the sum of all their parts, making them much better value than before.

You'll most likely get the new, more expensive, PEPPER Pack and not be charged for the Storage Compartment Pack.

Hi my dealer has confirmed that my car is being built now MC CR, with Storage Pack which is being charged as a seperate item 90.00 as it was when I ordered car.

'The price of the PEPPER and CHILI Packs goes up from Week 10 onwards to include the Storage Compartment Pack. You'll either pay the increased price, or separately for the Storage Compartment Pack, depending on when your cars are actually built.'

Therefore have made a 30.00 saving, in line with my contract. Like most I was advised a week 10 build with pack but that has all changed now, which is good news.

Tonyrec · Feb 1st, 2007, 03:03 PM

I will just have to wait and see how much i will be charged.

To be fair though, i did order it as a £90 option and thought that i wouldnt get it until mid March.
So i cant really complain if i get it a few weeks earlier and have to pay it.

muppet01 · Feb 1st, 2007, 05:04 PM

I think you will be alright you are not paying any more in fact if you had the now dearer chilie pack which includes the SCP you would have to pay 30 pounds more overall so you have in fact saved yourself 30 quid and will have your carsooner.
