Pretty good Noah, but I wont even go through the combined list of customer/media freebies I've got, the list is very nice.

Running this site does have it's up sides.

LMB · Mar 31st, 2002, 07:54 PM

When I picked up my Cooper I got:[list=1][*]A Mini Mug[*]A Mini Key Ring[*]....And that's it[/list=1]

I was quite happy at the time but I wouldn't have minded TLC thrown in.

It would be quite interesting someday, when the late-braking top news stories have settled down a bit, if you could scan some of the more rare items you've ammassed.

Honestly, I'll be plenty happy, if I only come home with a shiny, healthy Cooper S. If my dealer is right, and it comes in May, I'll be all the more elated. And if they don't throw in that travel mug, I'm sure I'll live.

Mine is coming from Scothall - Cambridge, so I'll add the pic to my list ! Keyring, flowers, ruck-sack..

A Rucksack for the big walk, because the Runflat-Tires

Rucksack is for holdind more freebies and snacks provided by dealer whilst awaiting fitment of tyre.

Just trying to stike a deal for a cd changer !

I ordered no spare wheel, no room for it anyway..
where would it take place ??

smartbomb · Apr 2nd, 2002, 05:51 PM

The MINI mobility system is offered on the 15" wheels and consists among other things of a can of sealant. Not sure if the 16"s are runflats ?

According to my manual it looks like provision for puncture repair may/will differ over different countries.

A full tank of petrol, a bunch of flowers and some oil. I managed to get a wire keyring with a mini badge which broke on day two.

They did supply two standard keyrings with the orange rubber inserts. My Dad made me a polished mahogony insert for one of them, very smart.

Ian, flowers ?? Hmmm I'd be a little worried if my dealer gave me flowers !
I got the wire keyring too, mine is ok so far, 1 week and counting....

Getting the car was the best part !

at Renault I got a bottle of Wine...thats better to drink

Ian · Apr 3rd, 2002, 04:28 PM

It's a BMW thing ... I'd of prefered a bottle of wine.

Gave the flowers to my Mum.

pob · Apr 4th, 2002, 04:28 PM

Oil???? I'll be gutted if I get oil! I've been promised a few nice surprises, but they won't say what they are yet. Pushing them to add a few more surprises because the delivery date has slipped from 1 April to 19 April.

smartbomb · Apr 4th, 2002, 04:32 PM

pob,
I'd go for the jugular, my delivery date was put back about 9 days and I got TLC for that ! Not bad I thought, plus a few extra bits and bobs too....

I'd be extremely frustrated by your delay, it will be worth the wait, but don't let 'em fob you off with a er, key er, fob !

pob · Apr 4th, 2002, 04:41 PM

I think she knows me well enough by now to know that I want lots of stuff! And therein lies my problem about going for the jugular - young female salesperson - completely throws me and I can't be stroppy! I'll see what being nice does for me.

smartbomb · Apr 8th, 2002, 05:05 PM

Perhaps they will throw in the young female salesperson !

Picked up my freebie rucksack yesterday, dealer was explaining that he had a customer whose car had been delayed by 3 weeks......I'd be well...guts and garters...

pob · Apr 18th, 2002, 05:06 PM

Quite impressed with the freebies. Usual full tank, keyrings etc, but also got the wire MINI keyring, the MINI Pen Set, and a very nifty 1:12 scale remote control Cooper. Oh and a bunch of flowers for my other half.

smartbomb · Apr 23rd, 2002, 04:38 PM

pob,
That sounds very good indeed !
My friends other half picked up her Cooper on Saturday and received a bouquet of flowers !
Was rather peeved when I mentioned what I blagged !

-vk- · Apr 24th, 2002, 02:49 AM

- wire Mini key ring
- full tank
- set of 4 15” steel rims with Dunlop winter tyres

Razor · Apr 24th, 2002, 08:06 AM

The only freebie I've had (apart from brochures and stuff) is a Christmas Card!
