Australia Cooper or Cooper D? Which Options? How Much? HELP!

Hello,

this is my first post here. I am currently studying up on the next car I should get and im looking at the Cooper Chilli and Cooper D Chilli (once its actually launched in Australia).

I have read in another Cooper D Thread for Australia that the D will increase in price over the normal Cooper by $2990. I dont know if this is true, but it seems to line up with the extra you pay for a Diesel car in Australia from other brands.

Anyways!

I wanted to get the auto box on the car, and when it comes to the options list (something which mini is famous for) im abit confused about what some of the Options do.

some of the options I just cant understand why you pay so much for, is this just RRP and when u go to a dealer they will throw them in? or alot cheaper? or is the price MINI Australia set, basically what you pay?

What does the CHILLI Pack exactly add to the Cooper Lineup anyway?

Bluetooth in the car, there are 2 Options, and 1 is double the price of the other? Im stumped as to what the difference actually is?

Bi-Xenon Headlights really needed? or does the cost of replacements weigh out any advantage to them?

Clear Indicator Lenses $200!!! are they serious? or can these be for free? or cheaper?

Compfort Access System I assume is a smart key? are they good?

is the heated front windscreen needed for Australian roads?

What does the sports button do? and why pay $300 for it? I know in a Cooper S it will prob do alot of things, but in a normal Cooper or Cooper D?

Is climate control worth actually paying extra for? or is the standard system fine?

What is the difference between Dynamic Stability Control and Dynamic Traction Control? and why is Dynamic Traction Control extra?

and Sports Suspension Settings? In a Cooper S I can see the point, but in a Cooper D or Cooper? much need?

Sorry for all the questions.

But thanks!
