Saltire, the wait is painful. My total wait was 45 day(Only? or Long?). The dealer told me anyone ordering now would wait +90 days. The allotments are being sold in the U.S., since the February release is just getting these babies on the street. It is an attention magnet.
Your D has what, about 120 hp? The 177hp S is a bad motor scooter.
I dumped a BMW convertible for this little SSilver/Black beauty.
I've been stopped at a restaurant and the company parking lot by people to discuss the Dragon Wagon.
Knowing what I know now and thanks to this site, I'm glad I didn't upgrade to the sports package. Run flats are pretty stiff as it is. 17" tires and the enhanced suspension would make it a rougher ride and cost and extra $1500 here or $2000 if I picked the cooler wheels.
You'll be able to type the MiniUK web address/password in your sleep as you track your new baby. Here, it's about a four day lag on MiniUSA.com vs. reality of the status. The status was @ Vehicle Distribution Center, yet it was at the dealer.
When you do pick it up, your heart will pound as you see her for the first time. The extra storage under the flat boot partition is great, especially with the second level below.
I sit on the patio just looking at the Dragon Wagon.
