Thanks for all that - I have added some comments
(By the way, this is an entirely unofficial survey - I don't even know yet where to send the completed wish list to (maybe Mr Mullett could advise?)

Same for the windows -- we already have one touch to put all windows down, but not for all windows up (at least for the US -- do you have it in Europe?).
Europe? Not that I am aware of. But at least all my windows go up now - used to have that erratic bug where one rear window went to sleep and stayed in bed....
It appears that the rear view camera accessory (MotoringFile » Archive » MINI Rear Camera Review) is not available for the R56. I hope they bring it back for the new cabrio. It is one of the best additions I've done to my cabrio, even better than the wind deflector. MINI have had low sales of the camera, but it is because nobody knows about it. If the rear camera had been listed on configurators for the current cabrio, it would have had healthy sales.
Didn't know about this - never seen it. Looks really cool, but you need the satnav option?
