You'll have to let me know how it is seen as ur gettin urs first macmini

mini has told me that the delivery of all german cars will take place in week 29 and 30 of 2006!
it seems to differ from country to country when the cars will leave the central depot in munich!?
me and my friend will travel down to munich in a couple of weeks again to see whats happenin
my dealer confirmed week 30 to me recently and you can be sure that i'll keep asking him every second day when mr 0834 is gonna arrive

must just be using S-spokes to move the cars around on

Is it the angle of the photo or is the roof sloping down greater on the rear of the car then normal?

Those cars look like they still need finishing off.

Maybe the wheels get put on last!?

It looks to be aswell that either the bumpers and side skirts have been protected, or they requiring painting.

Have to admit the black side skirts look quite good.

For the non-recaro seat cars (eg. usa market), I assume the fabric is in the middle of the seat with the side bolsters in leather correct?

DCC, that is the standard pattern for half leather seats, so I would say yes.

Has anyone noticed that the one on the left is left hand drive and the one on the right is right hand drive. The roof number seems to change position so it is on the drivers side only. Although why they do not put the number on both sides is a mystery. Do you think we will be able to buy the transfers from Mini if you want to put one on the passenger side?
