United-Kingdom Finance (apr) Delivery Times, TLC

Hey, im itching to order my Mini Cooper next month! cant wait. I was just wondering what all the mini drivers are paying in terms of apr, monthly payments, deposit amount and peroid lengh!

Also whats the current waiting list for a mini cooper

If i have TLC, does that mean i dont pay anything for servicing?

Whats that speedo button for by the speedo near the hazard lights?

Does anyone know whether mini will be at this years Hagley Hall motorshow?

Cheers !!

Welcome to MINI2

So many question so quickly

"Hey, im itching to order my Mini Cooper next month! cant wait"

It's worth the wait, but it does get worse

"I was just wondering what all the mini drivers are paying in terms of apr, monthly payments, deposit amount and peroid lengh"

They vary enormously depending on individuals circumstances. However APR can be negotiated, my dealer matched the 7.1% being quoted by Nationwide at the time I got my MINI

"Also whats the current waiting list for a mini cooper"

Again varies around the country from dealer to dealer. If you're happy with the spec they haev for a cancelled order you can walk away with one on the day, if not anything from 4 to 12 weeks

"If i have TLC, does that mean i dont pay anything for servicing?"

Yes for the first 50,000 miles or 5 years. But you do pay for waer and tear cosumables such as brake pads and the like. But it is a bargain deal for £100 - buy it

"Whats that speedo button for by the speedo near the hazard lights?"

It adjusts the dashboard light brightness

"Does anyone know whether mini will be at this years Hagley Hall motorshow?"

Don't know but someone here will

"Cheers !!"

Cheers too, come and join us one day on one of the many meets

My dealer offered me 10.4% on 4 year select agreement. I think I'm gonna get an egg loan (7.9%) instead now over 5 years! That way i can consolidate my credit card bill too! Plus, if I want to sell the car after 2years (yeah right) then I just pay what I owe as the interest is calculated monthly, i.e. the car is colatarol (spelling?).

Will be interesting to see where this thread goes!

Try Abbey National. I got my loan over a month and a half ago but they were doing a 6.9%, i got mine for 7.4%. Always worth looking around! Enjoy your mini

Was at Cheltenham MINI for a visit with a mate yesterday and the girl said delivery in August if ordered this week on a cooper with chilli pack.

This is the most unprofessional bit of site management I have seen since I was banned from a certain other site...at least they had the excuse that they were enthusiasts who had strong views and not professionals paid to keep thier cool!

Northandy,

I don't know if they have changed it everywhere, but I have been offered (and accepted!) 3.5% apr flat over three years for my S. I was going to go with Cahoot and told my dealer so, but she called me a couple of weeks ago and offered me this.

At this rate it would be mad to use my own cash!!

CR/W Cooper S - It has arrived!!
