Hi All,
I picked up my new car last week and thought i'd share some photos of it with all those who are waiting for one! :D
It's got all the toys except the stupid ones like tv. I didn't want the bigger wheels as I had the web ones last time and think i may get something a little different in the future.
Already driven to cornwall and back this weekend! :) 55mpg but i'd imagine that will get better after its run in a little.

Very smart indeed:cool: I love your choice of colour combo, especially with the cream colour line on the interior:D Very nice spec too!! As for 55mpg (not to mention the road tax)... I'm not jealous.. at all... :p
Enjoy!:cool:

Lovely looking car congratulations :D:D

Currently speccing - is the general view 17" for looks and 16" for comfort/fun?

I would say so, though in all honesty, I dont find my 17"s that bad with std suspension! and I've driven that many different types of MINI with wheels of all shapes and sizes!

I would have normally gone for the 17's as they do look good. I had the web wheels on my last cooper and looked awesome. This time though I thought I'd give the standard 16s a go as I blew the budget already on the sat nav.
Anthrocite roof lining is a must have, as is the MF steering wheel.
I may also decide to change the wheels in the future! :D

Thats it they are always coming up on Ebay etc.
You will loose your MPG as well putting bigger/heavier wheels on.
