That does look nice

[Olly.]

That looks cool. Really like the wheels

[fergusor]

I've ordered one, due for delivery end of September / beginning of October

They're not available until the beginning of September, how did the owner of that one get it so early?

Is it an Oxford reg plate?

You're right, OA to OY is Oxford. So perhaps it's a MINI exployee.

That's what I wondered - lucky b*gger!

[Olly.]

What colour is it?? Not a standard MINI colour is it??

[foxmoor]

I like the color, but not the Checkmate pattern on the sides. Will this particular blue color and silver roof/trim be available in the States in 2006? Thanks!

It's a Checkmate-only colour combination - Space Blue / Silver

[Dark]

The only thing I don`t really like is the way the seats have been done. But I didn`t hang around to much as it was chucking it down with rain.

[uncle albert]

Loving those wheels. Nice colour as well.

[Lanfear]

At the risk of sounding like Paris Hilton, that's hot!

not the only one. sorry, but to me they look exactly like the kind of dealer special that every other bargain basement manufacturer pushes out to clear old stock
