Anyone out there know if the Aero Kit will be updated as well as the bumpers when the facelift is introduced soon ? .

We don't know Gerard, but I doubt it.............

I am thinking of selling the ONE soon and ordering for delivery in late June ,will the 'facelifted' cars be be coming through by then ? . going through specs at the moment and I figure I am going to end up with a very expensive MINI ONE , I just can't seem to stop ticking those boxes . decision time SOON .

Nope Gerard, the absolute earliest facelifted cars will be produced is in July, some even think they won't be delivered possibly till September, but 100% certain facelifted production isn't starting until early July anyway.........

Keep ticking the boxes !

No S then ?

'To wait or not to wait ' that is the question !!!!!!!!! .No Aiden I thought about an S and decided against it ,even though I enjoyed the Ss I drove and the JCW I did about 1000mls in last year , I worry about residual values . I think this is because of one of my 'day Jobs' selling Classic Minis which at this stage are appreciating in value .I can't bring myself to suffer deprecation . I have noticed a few Ss coming onto the market down here and deprecation was much more than ONEs .perhaps if I spec the ONE the way I am thinking I will have just as much of a problem .but I think ONE with decent Head / re-map and a few other goodies I should be OK . BUT on the other hand an S with a --------------STOP back to the list !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The extras don't help..........

I'm rightly banjaxed then !

I'm thinking of the JCW now too, the bill is mounting............

As I said I am used to 'appreciation' in the Classics , but I suppose the MINI which ever model is much better deprecation wise than most other cars on the market .I don't know what to do re facelift now . I think the JCW is excellent and is very useable , no big 'rush' of power like some modified MINIs BUT. the price I feel is a little OTT .I also drove a few JCW Coopers (non S ) and frankly don't see the point, my modded ONE is much more impressive .

Its the warranty and the heritage Gerard, but the Cooper mod from JCW definitely ain't worth it......
