My Cooper was designated to be built in week 49, so I phoned up today to get my headlining changed to the anthracite one, but it's gone into RED stage and it's being built on TUESDAY !

Means I get my car on 1st December rather than 3 weeks into the month.

YAY !

How lucky are you

Nice one! Shame about the anthracite but I suppose you save your self £100+ odd quid (how can they justify charging any extra for a different colour of roof lining!!!)

Great news! Thats exciting! The normal roof liner colour is quite nice though and the anthracite might feel a bit clostrophobic with your black leather interior without a sunroof.

Want to see photos asap!

I got black cloth interior (i hate leather with a passion ! especially in cars !). The anthracite head lining sorta matches the colour of the doors and the darker trim, but ho hum, i was too late ! they've also decided to do the ScotchGuard malarky for cost price too

So i'm saving more there too

Of course... I should have run it in by then :] Give it a bit of a boot to see what it can do. Should be sat on Bullets by then too
