Who cares what JC thinks, i've picked my Cooper D Clubman up today and absolutely love it!

Can't stop nipping out to mess with the controls, so far i'm loving the bluetooth and the fact it plays MP3s and displays the text.

Need a shorter aeril though as it hits the garage door when I close it, any ideas for an aerial guys?

Looks funky with those mirror caps

Enjoy

KillerByte · Dec 28th, 2007, 07:18 PM

That looks awesome!

Enjoy!

Thank you folks, I will try and get a better photo of my Checkered 'side scuttle' thingys below the side repeaters! May still go for checkered roof, but don't know if it would look too 'busy'!

Wow thank you fella, I saw you had ordered the same colour combo as mine when browsing the forums, I can promise you that the wait will be well worth it, you will NOT be dissapointed.

I absolutely love mine, have always loved yellow, and always missed my Yellow OneD. When the Clubman was launched it was the perfect excuse to get another Yellow MINI with a bit more room for my mountain bike in the boot!

I'm really pleased I specced tinted rear glass, as this in conjuntion with the black roof, gloss black rear pillars and bumper top in my opinion make the car look absolutely amazing, especially as today is the first time I have seen that colour combo in the flesh!

I placed my order after test driving the CooperD on launch day, which was on November 10th. It arrived at my dealers on 21st Dec, and I took delivery today with 7 day's 'free' insurance from MINI because of postal troubles over the Christmas period!

I will try and get more photo's for you to browse tomorrow, although it is difficult with the poor weather - blasted rain!!

Defenitely, thanks Harpo. It hasn't really felt like Christmas to me this year (Don't know exactly how Christmas is supposed to feel) but today it all changed, I feel 4 years old again.

Got to go, i'm on page 18 of the manual, and intend to read it all the way through before bed time!

Right, how long do I want my lights to stay on for once I've turned my engine off, arrrrrgh, I just don't know

mella yella fella · Dec 28th, 2007, 09:37 PM

blimey! you were lucky

we ordered ours nov.3rd,and have had del. date delayed due to diesel engine shortage, but it is due to be built next month(week 2, 2008).

hopefully everyone concerned will get a wriggle on and it will be a bit early

btw,yours is the best looking clubman i've seen so far

--not that i'm biased in any way

Not that I know of Si

Nar, when I test drove it I really liked the feel, build quality and the extra practicality + those amazing rear doors of course!

ScoobyDoo · Dec 29th, 2007, 09:06 PM

Looks very nice. The yellow with the all black options looks very smart.

femstar · Dec 30th, 2007, 10:59 PM

We are in mid discussion with Park Lane and they can have a car ready for us in less that a month and are offering a brilliant trade in price, so brill that I'm not even gonna disclose it until we have it in hand. But three weeks is pretty good going.
