Looks nice. I was going to get ASTRO BLACK but it was not available. Not seen one yet, would like to see. Where do you plan to take your car in to get the roof fixed? i will try and book mine in for the same time. Enjoy, its a good car.

I had a call from the dealer this morning, our HO MCC has just been delivered just a mere 4 WEEKS LATE!!
The dealer is going all out to get it PDI'd as quick as they can to make up for the delays.
If they do I'll eat my words and buy the sales guy a large drink for giving him grief over the last month.
Roll on the summer

Good taste - solid black MINIS are very cool and the wheels are very tasty too.

miles_oneill -

I fitted chrome 'shark gills' and clear side indicators about 2 hours after the pic was taken!

Great minds and all that...

11 months and 22 days? Holy smokes you have a lot of patience.... I just ordered mine and was guaranteed an October delivery... I hope to god I don' t have to wait 11months and 22 days, I don't know if I could wait that long. Anyways congrats and happy motoring in your new MCC.
