I was told that the glovebox will be available from september onwards. However, that was by MINI customer services who aren't the most reliable source of information. This was in march.
Before that information I was told a storage pack, including the glovebox would be available in the 1st quarter 2002. So your guess is as good as mine.
I think they just keep putting the date back until people get bored with asking about it.

Im sure that it will come, its just to stupid a thing not to really.

But as you say, seems really strange that its not there from the start,

the single open shelf is nice, but the A/C in the glove box would prob mean that 100% of people with AC would want it

I was also told by my dealer (MINI dealer not the other kind. He drives a tricked up Lexus )there would be a glovebox option from September.

But then he remembereed that it was me who told him that in the first place after reading it on here! Doh! At least someone is taking us seriously!

Post June RHD Oz bound Cooper S's WILL have gloveboxes. The only possible issue with RHD would be supply.

The above information was confirmed by MINI Australia.
