England HELP/Exchange wanted by soon to be New MINI owner

Ok, this is going to seem a bit weird to a lot of people, but here goes.......

I am after help from someone that as just ordered or is about to order a new 05 MINI without Sat Nav, in Yorkshire area would be best if possible, in particular someone that is ordering with just a Boost Head Unit.

I am after an 05 CD head unit, so was hoping that someone out there would increase their spec to this option, I have an 05 Boost Cassette unit to give in trade, so you won't be without a head unit, and obviously would pay the difference in price on the car order or be open to discuss this.

I hope that there is someone out there that can help me, oh it has to be an 05 CD head unit, as the reason I want it is that with the new HU TMC will be activated on my Sat Nav.

thanks in advance

So you want someone with a brand new 05 CD head unit to swap with your 03 cassette head unit? Good luck

My order currently stands at just the wave radio cassette if that's any help - not boost, though. Car is due mid-Jan & I'm near Preston.

Hi Rob,

thats great, thanks for the offer, but the upgrade price from Wave to Boost CD HU is a lot bigger than the £70 from Boost Cassette to Boost CD HU, had one offer of this already and decided not to take it due to cost

But really thank you, appreciate your post, and hope you enjoy your new MINI
