Wow ! Generous to a fault !
I have used some of my vouchers to buy MINI - The Story. A great book with the mulit colour stripey cover - brilliant !

When you buy a car it BETTER come iwht a full tank of gas. You just spent upwards of $20k the LEAST they can do is let you drive off the lot with a full tank of motor juice.

Free Garmin Sat Nav and UJ roof decal. We'd had a few problems with the purchase, so i think they wanted to try and make it up to us.

I haven't picked up my R56 yet, but my dealership told me that he was giving me floor mats and rear fog lights. I didn't have to bargain, my sales rep gave them to me out of sheer niceness.

I got included free of charge (2007 MCS) the following:

Chrome Exhaust Tips

Black Carpet Floor Mats

Valve Stem Caps

Wheel Locks

Full tank of gas

A goodie bag of pens and other corporate bling

And I did not ask for a single thing

Try to top that haul without asking for it.

[Tigger, Eeyore & Roo]

We managed to get a cuddly blue MINI and a full tank of fuel when we'd paid for a part tank.

1/10 on the freebie scale I'm afraid

Tigger.

PS: Did manage to get the first few mods in place while it was still in the hand over bay in the show room

[BadBuck]

Managed the usual stuff a free cleaners rucksack with goodies ..

Also got myself the rear seat covers (the leather jobby worth £120) great because i have a dog and bring her along sometimes not like she can fit in the boot is it?

[stuvoi]

I got free Spot lights and Ipod Connector.

Due to the delay - I also ended up getting the storage pack - which wasn't included when I originally expected the car.

But didn't get the free bag with wash stuff in it.

I also have non working Sat Nav and Non Working DAB Radio <ho hum>

iPod connection!!??.....that cost me £200something

[LizzyG]

I haven't got a MINI (yet!) but when I collected my brand new Fiesta ST last September, I got free mats, half a tank of petrol, a keyring, and a rather lovely bunch of flowers.

[jamesbeaumont]

I got a keyring on each key....and a full tank of fuel (doubt it was anything higher than 95 RON ) with my R56

I also got some free wheels.

Sat Nav & DAB have now been fixed.

But two of the washer Jets have stopped working

What About Freebies When Buying 2nd Hand From A Bmw Dealer....

[LizzyG]

Got home today to find that I have a letter from my local mini dealer, Rydale Sutton (where I recently bought my (used) mini from) giving me a free gift of a portrait photo at venture photographers. I must admit I wasn't exepcting a gift so it was a nice surprise, even though it wouldn't be my cup of tea - can't see me and hubs posing in a photo studio

Anyone else get a free gift with their mini?

[Gravity]

A friend of mine had the offer of one of these and ended up spending about £400 on photos - think it's a bit of a high pressure thing but still, nice of them to offer!

My MINI dealership(s) have never given me anything gratis, but the service is great and that's more than enough

You want to be a bit careful - once they have you in the studio they will push all sorts of gorgeous canvas effect pictures, nicely framed, very special (and expensive). How do I know? I have a relative in the pro-photography bbusiness, and this is how he makes his money!

Freebies from my MINI dealer? I received a funny promotion recently - a pair of black shoelaces with MINI printed all along them in white. Not very practical, but a bit cute. Maybe I should try them on eBay!!! Before that, it was a small piece of black towelling - I think for wiping my screen or something. I have also had a MINI hat out of him, a few pens and those magnetic MINI miniatures, and of course invites to the big preview party for the Italian Job movie. So I'm not complaining.

[DevilRat]

I got a lovely big bunch of flowers when I picked up my MINI

[LizzyG]

Yeah, my friend has had photos done at venture and said it was a bit hard sell. Still, it was a surprise anyway!

Dalboyne you have had some cool freebies!

[SomeYoungGirl]

Hello!!

You could always take pics yourself! they always turn out the best, I think! Pictures of ur mini adventures! I regret not taking enough pictures of my Mini when i had her! (still regret trading her for an X3).

I got a big bunch of flowers too when i picked her up from the dealers! was a bit gutted cos i'm not really a flower girl, i wud have preferred one of those cute Mini soft toys or bottle of champers (haha dream on eh!).

I got a better gift for the bimmer - a cool rucksack with a full range of cleaning products!! (actually encourages me to wash the car! hehe!)

Dalboyne - who's ur Mini dealer? Maybe I'll get my next Mini from them
Not just yet tho, only had bimmer for 7weeks! (still getting used to it, and still missing Mini LOTS!)
