I'd like to know about the cruise control. Is there an active cruise control option (radar controlled monitoring of distance from vehicles in front)?

And what is the minimum speed at which it operates?

What options can we expect to be added into the range next year that are not there from launch?

Will we be seeing Heads Up displays are on the 5 series?

Will there be front PDC?

Is there going to be a JCW sound kit for Cooper and MCS?

How about recarros, will there be an option for a premium seat for the R56? As in Recarro or JCW?

Yep I second what Rakey asks regarding the grill options and driving lamps (are they available straightaway, how they fit.)

Thanks - have a great time all you that are going!

Rakey's already asked my two questions.

is there an aero kit available. i want it but i hope not at the same time because that would screw up my spec

also could you ask if there will be bucket seat options available, at launch or in future.

paul, if you see creme white options for colourline and all that could you take a pic of it please

Better than this, take a video of the mood lighting being changed. We only have the gif supplied by MINI to show the effect at the mo'.

It was acceptable in the 80's

Im with Rakey on this one, what other Grille options are available on the MCS?

Any solid info on aux light kits?
Any info on JCW options/kits etc.?

Bit pre-emptive this one but are they planning a GP version?

Its a very difficult job and the only way to get through it is we all work together as a team.....

What exactly is the Chrome exterior pack on the Cooper S? What does it look like without this?
I'd like the chrome around the grilles but not a chrome boot handle. Will this be possible?

Paul, could you (if you can!) find out the difference between the punch leather and the lounge leather as there seems to be a bit of confusion going on here regarding these (i.e. which is which?!!)

Are the auto wipers now proper auto wipers? (ie you don't have to turn them on each time you start the car )
