Right, so I'm getting ready to order an '06 MCS, for delivery in Germany. Nothing like getting a model at the end of its production run.

Was wondering this -- if you had it to do over agin, what would you have changed on your Mini?

Would you have dropped in some Kofi FSD shocks right away? Not ordered the wind deflector for the sunroof? Bought better quality rims for your winter tires? Covered it in flames? Waited for JCW brakes to be offered? Skipped the drink holder?

Same car, almost same specs ...
except that I'd take the Recaro interior, xenons, and antracite interior now.

I'd drop the sunroof. Not just being anal about weight, but less things that might rattle at high speeds
