Just got a bottle of Champagne when I collected my car, which was nice.

smartbomb · Mar 22nd, 2002, 01:03 PM

A small victory !
Have been in touch with my dealer today and success !
My car is there and availbale Mon tho I'm working, but will collect Tues afternoon.
Due to much messing about and general lack of attention they have paid for my TLC !
Was hoping for a cd changer, but I already have one so the saving is a wee bit better !

Still have gear to blag come Tues....

scott shand · Mar 25th, 2002, 05:26 PM

after much muking me about and them smashing my original cooper on transport i got:
free cooper for a month and a half (while they built me a new one)
front fogs
one tank of petrol on delivary and one tank of petrol after they made a mess of my bonnet strips (they had to replace them)
radio boost (so i bought the cd)
TLC paid for
floor mats
touch up paint

i got all this cause i complained at the state of the cooper when it came (it had to go back 6 times!)

smartbomb · Mar 25th, 2002, 05:30 PM

Hi Scott,
Hopefully my Cooper won't have to go back at all !
However the free TLC, just about5 covers over the cracks of being cr*p that my dealer has....
Collecting 26/03 TBC....and all the goodies I can manage !

scott shand · Mar 25th, 2002, 05:48 PM

good luck and go get those freebeeeeees
hope your cooper brings you as many smiles as mine does

sarahharris28 · Mar 26th, 2002, 04:04 AM

I managed to get £100 off the paint protection stuff!!

smartbomb · Mar 26th, 2002, 05:53 PM

Collected today....
Came away with....
TLC
MINI wing keyring
MINI orange keyring given too previously !
Bottle of champers
Ruck sack...tho this is on it's way
Paint and upholstery protection kit

Not bad I don't think.

Kinster · Mar 27th, 2002, 06:46 AM

I wanted one of them model cars (1:18). But was too eager to drive away and forgot about it!

ant · Mar 27th, 2002, 07:03 AM

Forgot about this thread!

I got a bottle of Champers, a full tank of petrol and one of the little model MINIs.

Not bad, but I'll have to try harder when I get my S

Which model did u get ant? small, medium or large?

I thought the petrol was included as part of the 'on the road' price?

Still haven't seen you on the road yet ant. Where abouts in headingley do you live?

ant · Mar 27th, 2002, 07:59 AM

I got the small one - thought it looked quite cute

and besides, I already have the remote controlled models that Maplins (?) were selling

I to thought a full tank of juce was part of the bundle, but some unlucky peeps don't seem to get it...

As for me - I live off Cardigan road, just down from the cricket ground. But you won't have seen me around because you are too busy polishing those 17's

Saw a blonde in a black "One" this morning - look of utter bemusement on her face when I flashed her! Oh well, hopefully they'll learn

Kinster · Mar 27th, 2002, 10:27 AM

Are the remote control ones, the ones in green/white and red/white? Saw them at Toys R Us last night at £16 each.

Where do you park your car cos it's pretty dodgy down that end, full of students jumping on cars etc

.... Also when a rugby or cricket match is on, you can hardly drive down there, cos everyones parked so close together

smartbomb · Mar 27th, 2002, 05:23 PM

No model, but have 2 already !
Gonna whack on the paint/fabric protection at the weekend maybe....
Then gonna tap up dealer for a discounted cd changer !!

Red Cooper · Mar 28th, 2002, 12:54 PM

Probably everyone knows this already, but here we go:

When I picked up my Cooper, I got a £8.23 bill for 2 weeks road tax... and 5 min walkaround the MINI...

scott shand · Mar 28th, 2002, 05:59 PM

just picked up a set of chrome side vents courtsy of my dealer

along with all the other stuff ive done gooooooooood,

smartbomb · Mar 28th, 2002, 06:18 PM

Red Cooper,
That takes the biscuit !
My handover was superb and lasted over an hour !
Delighted with the car, and the freebies and attention are a great touch....

Skinnyrunt · Mar 29th, 2002, 12:52 PM

I got free TLC, Watch and two MINI logo keyrings and all my ICE fitted.

Mark

Paul · Mar 31st, 2002, 06:36 AM

First off.

You PAY for full tank of fuel, it's on the invoice.

Anyway, Abi did quite well.

She got:

1 weeks road tax (on top of the year, wow).
A MINI cuddly ruck sack (yellow/white)
A MINI cuddly cushion (red/white)
A MINI handbag thingumy (blue/creamish)
A great big bunch of flowers (several colours)

I think that's just about it.
