Where is this new "more accesible position"?

And is there any more up-to-date news on when the Clubman JCW will be released? "March, probably" is the best I've been given so far.

Good news all who have ordered a new clubman


Following the recent bulletin detailing September 2008 Model Year actions, we are pleased to announce that Roof Rack Preparation will NOT be removed from MINI Clubman models.

Customers will therefore be able to specify either option 386 - Roof Rails or alternatively fit the Roof Rack Base Support System via the Aftersales retrofit kit.

Are there any photos or a description of Midnight Black available - my order is on hold (voluntary by myself) until I get a chance to see this colour or at least have information to determine if this the colour I want ...

Is it a pure metallic black as opposed to one with a tint of another colour to it?

Hi, I tried to view the MINI UK and MINI USA configurators to see the Horizon Blue color but no luck. Is it gone? How did you get to see the color or which model did you start designing to see the exterior?
Thanks in advance.
