New here with a new order

Hello, just registered last night. Liking what I'm finding on this very expansive site. Not a completely 'proper' member yet as I won't get my Cooper till the end of January. Too far away! Although I will be getting the new steering wheel which seems to have split opinions! I like it personally.

Is the wait as long as it seems it will be for delivery?

Hello to you to you too, welcome to the site!

The wait will be over before you know it.

Honest.

welcome onboard. many of us (like u) dont have our cars yet but can contribute the wealth of information that is MINI2 the community. feel free to join in the banter etc.... the wait feels much longer honestly than the actual time to delivery. when you get a date its usually for production week. then add a few weeks on for transport, dealer prep and fitting (if applicable). mine was initially quoted as production middle of nov, delivery end of nov. infact its going to be atleast the 10th of december before i actually get my hands on her...

my advice, use the time to choose lots of new options.... assuming you havent passes the point at when you can change your order already...

10th Dec is only two days away scooperman, not long now!

As for the options list, I'm trying to stay away from it. Already spent enough on it!

Hi!
Anyone who spends the time waiting for their MINI by reading about them in the meantime is a full member of MINI2! We've almost all been there . The wating is not too bad - it's the last few days that really get to you.

Hi Vosh and as everyone has said - welcome to mini2!

Is the wait bad? YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!!
I'm about half way through - ordered 3 Nov getting her around 23rd Jan (at dealers 19th).While everyone else is looking forward to xmas (whats that? ) all I can think of is Jan!

I'm sure the wait will be very worth it - just trying to keep my current "banger" on the road till then - I swear it knows I'm going to scrap it - been reliable as hell till I ordered the mini now everythings going wrong.

cheers
Paul
