Talking Speccing an MC to a budget

Just speccing my replacement MC. I have a strict budget to work to, so if I had to delete something from the proposed list below, what would you delete? (Please don't say delete MC, get a MCS instead )

Proposed spec:
  • MC in solid black, with black roof
  • Silver bonnet stripes and silver union flag on roof
  • Chrome mirror caps
  • Chilli pack with SS+, Kaleido (red) 1/2 leather interior
  • Alloy Patina
  • Manual air-con
  • MFSW (perforated leather 'S' type)
  • Alarm
  • 17s
  • Spots
  • White side indicators
  • ASC+T
  • CD changer prep
  • Heated jets + mirrors

Is there anything you would add or swop (as a must)?

Go for the 16's

I don't know about the chrome mirror caps in combo with the stripes & the silver Union Jack. I'd probably go body color.

Drop the leather & go for cloth--it'll open up your budget a good bit. With all the silver/chrome on black, do you want to go panther grey kaleido instead of red?

Doesn't the CD changer prep come standard?

Some of these things are standard on a MCS/Chili Pack.

So just get:

Black MCS
Chili Pack
MFSW
CD Changer Prep
Heated Jets and Mirrors

The rest are all dealer fit so just order them when you can afford it:

Silver bonnet stripes and silver union flag on roof
Chrome mirror caps
Spots

There is just one moon and one golden sun; And a smile mean friendship to ev'ryone; Through the mountains divide, and the oceans are wide; It's a small world after all.
