I participated in that "exclusive" survey but have not received an invitation for the workshop. :(

They like you better then the rest of US. I guess it was bound to happen, MINIUSA has their favorites :D

Now I'm going to be second guessing my responses, wondering what would have gotten me to the survey....

Still no contact from me. I guess you're just their target for one reason or another. It is surprising no one else on here has been asked, but I guess they're not looking for tons of M2 people, since they can just read our views whenever they want.

I didn't get invited, but I'm surprised that they would conduct the survey on Mother's Day.

Hahahha so you want me to tell them to have a British accent lady for the Nav instead of an American accent. LOL :D DEAL... and what about the spanish and german languages??

Thanks A Lot! :D
Right now we get the US accent English: the Spanish and French So I understand the job to pick just 3 is not easy for them... So they need to provide a wider choice
Well I think the Ideal would be for each owner to be able to pick what 3 he wants in his MINI
The VDO Dayton OEM unit that MINI uses is programed right now with 9 languages and 21 voices/accents And so it should just be another Programing option for the dealer at delivery...

I am also attempting to get as many people as I can to post this request in the MINI owners lounge site and to send letters to Jack Pitney the MINI head honcho in the US at MINI US HQ

Your direct access in this survay can help yhe cause a lot I think

Cheers

Funny how they have both Saturday and Sunday hours to ask people about the cars, because maybe they realize most of us work during the week, yet service (at least here) doesn't really run on the same logic. Go figure, and you pay (especially in CA) way more then the $66.67/hr they're giving you for the survey to get your car fixed out of warranty.
