United-Kingdom Convertible Brochures ?

It seems some MINI dealers have brochures and others don't? My dealer insists that the brochures are not out until July and that the they only thing they have at the moment is a flyer. I'm going to the Motor Show Preview Day next week so I'll get all that I need there hopefully. I'm trading in my beloved MCS in August for a MCS Convertible. My build date is 13th August

Cool Convertible Colour

At the moment I'm 99.9% going for Hyper Blue, but this could change... I like other MINI drivers to know from a distance that I'm in an 'S' (My current MCS is Electric Blue, No White Bits!) There are not many of them about!

I'm an Irish Dealer, and I took delivery of a box of Cabrio Brochures yesterday, the rest of the material is in fact delayed, things like colour cards, paint samples, etc.

Thank 4 that ned78! Do these brochures cover the MCS or is it just 1's & C's?

Covers the lot. It's an usual brochure, the first inner page is like an overhead transparency, you push a perforated little mini out of. Every second page in the brochure is sealed, and you use the little mini to break the perforations on the edge to open up the 'secret' page. The ideal thing about the little mini is that you can place it onto the colour squares and get an idea of what the new colours look like!

Yeah - I picked one up from a contact about 10 days ago - cool little brochure - no prices in it, but the Cooper pictures are mainly of an Orage one, the S is in Cool Blue (nice). I know some dealers still have delivery slots for September, but not many in the South East.

Could be ordering one next week if I get a better trade-in value than I'm hearing right now.

D.I.C.K.Lovett (had to space it out or it gets censored!) in Bristol has brochures, popped down to get one today. Some very nice pictures in there!

Was pleased to see the Cool Blue/Blue Roof Combo which is what I have chosen for my Cooper! Looks fabulous!!

Getting very excited!

Germany Additional 84 pg brochure available (called RECYCLING)

Today I got two brochures of the Convertible from my dealer (in germany) + a complete Euro price list (dated July 2004). The first brochure is the standard brochure with the sealed pages mentioned above containing One, Cooper and Cooper S Convertible, the other one called RECYCLING (don't know why) has 84 pages with a lot of pictures of the convertibles (cool blue, red, hot orange, red) and many details. It also contains a complete colour table and descriptions of the interior options.
Unfortunately my scanner doesn't work properly at the moment, but if anybody is interested in special information (text is german), I could try to scan or take a photo of single pages (e.g. leather/cloth colours).
----------------
My Cooper S Convertible will still be hyper blue with black top, Chili, 5 star bullet 17", heated mirrors, color-coded interior, Chrome line interior package, Cockpit chrono package, heated seats (some other threads convinced me to take these) and I hope to get it in July

... 1 day til MCS convertible

Would be cool if you could make a picture if all the Cool Blue Pics and the Interior Combinations. Where did you get the Brochure. I live in Berlin and like to get one too ...

Photos out of brochure available in own thread

I took some photos out of the 84 page brochure and posted them under:
http://www.mini2.com/forum/showthread.php?t=59810
I live in a small town near Dortmund. My dealer got the brochures on last friday and he himself didn't see them before I asked for it. So I was the first one here to get one of each brochure

... 1 day til MCS convertible
