But you can't do it in stages like the rest I guess...

ICE/Tints, etc are things that can be added gradually.

With something like the Works kit I think your better off getting it when you buy your car.

Here's the deal then...
If I do change I'll get the JCW but then were talking about £22k. That's about £6k to change
I don't want a standard MCS if I change...
So I'm an idiot if I don't keep my MCS and get the JCW added to it. I can save about £2.5k that way
I'll just have to put up with my weekly visits to the dealers. I guess I get free car washes in return

MINI, RX8 and MX5 - Done those............. It's now TTime

I'm an idiot for changing my car to be honest. I've had every little niggle fixed, the cars perfect.

However....

If Milcars come up with a good cost to change I may just get a lower spec'd MCS
More speed if I drop a few of the extras and go for 16s x-lites
I'm sure my dealer will let me have x-lites as a no cost extra if I swap the s-spokes. They'll be quids in too
No full leather, sunroof or heated seat will already save me a grand
That might then only cost me about a grand to change, which could then make it worth it and then when the TLCs used up I'll Hartge it
