Bought new '08 model - MINI2

Hi!
I've just joined, 'cos I've bought a new '08 Cooper S Clubman from Wayside MK, the last of a batch.
Obviously, this car has been standing somewhere for 5 or so months. Though I've driven it, and it was superb, is there anything that I should ask the dealer to do before delivery, or anything I should do myself, because of this time period?

Thanks,
Rich

Welcome to the forum,

I would suggest that you make sure the dealer puts the car through a service prior to delivery. Before you part with the money check the whole car and yes ask for another test drive just give you a piece of mind. Also ask the dealer what is the time if for example that you are not satisfied with the car that you can return it? Make sure if you can that you ask for the car to be raised off the floor so you can see the underside. If you are not happy with the tyres request the tyre that you are not happy with to change for a new one.

I hope this helps
