  • The MINI keyring with the orange thing and dealer name inscribed
  • The big round MINI keyring
  • D*ck Lovett Golf Umbrella
  • Bottle of champagne
  • Small model of MINI cooper
  • A few cups of coffee
  • A 14 grand lighter bank balance
  • A full tank of petrol

you watching this Neo ???

That said, you don't have much to match up too... I got..
- A demonstration of how the petrol reserve light worked.. (that's right, no fuel)
- 1 keyring, silver with orange fob.
- a big phone bill and a headache trying to sort it out.

Dom,
Looks like you're the pace-setter, sounds like you have found a pretty good dealer....
I'd settle for great service, but reckon it won't hurt dealers to show their generous side, as we all know that it rarely sees the light of day !

I think due to WWW.MINI2.COM, I will be using Alliance and Leicester financing rather than MINI select, apart from having a final payment of £3000 rather than £4800 for just an extra £8 a month (which should leave me with some equity in the vehicle after 42 months) I'll be saving about £850 which means the following items are practically free:

Panther Leather upgrade to Chilli pack £530
MFW £160 (£80 discount due to Chilli pack)
Heated Front Seats £180


Well done to everyone at WWW.MINI2.COM

I shall call him..."MINI-Me"! Silver/Black MC CVT 30/03/02 -11/02/06
"MINI Me Too" Chilli Red MCSa arrived 03/03/06

Corleone,
Looks like we have a winner in the free stuff stakes !
As I should be picking my car up anyday I will let you know what is in it !
As I have mentioned a cd changer would do nicely, otherwise it's goodbye dealer hello deposit and another few months wait....

Why is everyone surprised when they get a 'free' tank of petrol, it isn't free you pay for it, look at your invoice, 30 quids worth is included with the delivery costs etc..

If you didn't get it, your dealer is taking the p**s.

I got a MINI pen set the first time, whoopee. I'll see if that can be bettered second time round when I collect my baby at lunchtime. Not holding my breath though.

Varse's Velvet Beauty Mk11 is no longer, sold back to my dealer.
