Anyone ordered a DS cabrio? More the point has anyone taken delivery of one? Would love to see some pics!!

-edit-

And to think I posted this just over 12 months ago

How about we now use this thread to show off our Dark Silver MCSC's

Cheers

Haven't seen any owner pics of Dark Silver posted yet. There are a few Mini press shots, but you probably have seen them already. In case you haven't...

* There is one picture in the Gallery here (http://www.mini2.com/gallery/MINI%20...le/scab_06.jpg)

* There are also a couple others on www.miniusa.com under "Our Cars" ... "Mini Cooper S Convertible" ... "Photo Gallery".

I have a few I took when a Dark Silver one was at my dealer, I will try to post them tomorrow...

Sporty posted a link to some pics of a Dark Silver in another thread at a dealer. http://homepage.mac.com/eyebite/PhotoAlbum22.html

Thanks a lot guys for the links. I think that I have made the right decision.

Jonnyspin · Aug 7th, 2004, 11:26 AM

can anyone paintshop that to blue roof and blue int?

btw, that's the only colour I've seen that I like the bonnet stripes on

meinamini · Aug 15th, 2004, 03:43 AM

So has anyone had a DS 'S' Cabrio delivered yet?
I really want to see some pics of a 'real' car.
Please Help!

leila · Aug 16th, 2004, 08:39 AM

I've got a DS which is at the dealer. Can't pick it up until I get my paperwork through from the DVLA for my cheapie personalised reg which has got lost in the post once.... Hopefully will get the car within the next two weeks so will post some pics then!

meinamini · Aug 17th, 2004, 11:43 PM

Thanks leila!
Hope your car is on the road sooner rather than later. Congratulations by the way!
Can't wait to see some pics

leila · Aug 23rd, 2004, 09:06 PM

here she is....
(if I've attached the pic right that is!)

minimememe · Aug 24th, 2004, 02:28 AM

Thanks for posting the pic. She's beautiful!
It's exactly what I ordered except for the chrome exterior.
I'm thinking of maybe modifying my order.

That is fantastic. Now I know I made the right choice

I just know you are going to enjoy that.

leila · Aug 24th, 2004, 03:28 PM

Am completely loving it - esp as it's my first mini! Was driving up the M3 yesterday and looked in the rear view mirror to find a black mini behind me merrily flashing away, I got so excited I forgot I was meant to be running in the engine - glanced at the speedo and I'd crept upto 90 - whoops!

Posted a couple more pictures. Can't stop smiling!

McCasper · Aug 24th, 2004, 05:23 PM

I have a similar spec on order and can only make changes for another few days before it gets locked in. I did not order the bonnet stripes or exterior chrome but am now really considering them. Thanks for the great pictures and I can't wait for them to start building so that I can stop adding features.

How do you like the driving lights? It's a dealer installed option and not sure if it worth the extra that they charge.

I love the driving lights and reckon it goes really well with the bonnet stripes. As for whether it's worth the extra money... well I figured the amount I was spending on the car a little extra wouldn't hurt!

AidenL · Aug 24th, 2004, 05:37 PM

Congrats , looks super.............

Congratulations again!
Enjoy your new wheels.

Leila,

Thank you!!! The top is black. There is a DS demonstrator at the dealership with a blue hood but it really doesn't do the car any justice at all - in a way it just looks wrong (in my opinion).

Now I just need some sunny weather so I can get the top down!
