Sorry .. can't find this in a faq or via search. Checked minusa.com and no such option offered. Is this something not available in USA?

Thanks!

It is an options package available for Coopers only in the UK.

There is also a Chili pack for Cooper Ss too.

I tried to put a link in here but failed, however, you can find more informatino on the MINI UK site at www.mini.co.uk

Hope this helps.

Thank you! Driving me nuts! And thanks for the link .. I'll try it soon .. had just tried linking to uk site via minusa.com .. but once got there, couldn't get past picking exterior colors .. some sort of bug .. so couldn't move on to options.

Living in London, are you? Never been to England .. but I'm an Anglophile+++ .. love the plays, the tv shows (Avengers, Inspector Morse, British Men Behaving Badly, Parkinson, etc) , the plays, the actors, the films, etc, etc, etc ... even considering the Union Jack for the roof of my soon-to-be-ordered S. I'd love to go to England some time .. and Scotland .. maybe Ireland. Put if off because I imagine it being too hard to leave!!

Thanks again,
Mark

I don't believe this is a Chili pack offered in the US on a Cooper S. Besides the web site and all of the US brochures not mentioning it. I asked my dealer about it and he said "notta"...no such thing in the US. He said maybe people are referring to the cold package as the Chili package. From the way the UK folks describe it, it sounds like a cross between the sports package and the cold package though. It doesn't matter 'cause I don't believe you will be able to get that here.

Please scold me nicely if I'm wrong.

The Chili Pack is offered in countries other than the UK e.g. the rest of europe!

Glad to be able to help or add to the confusion

London is home, however, both Mr DK and I work in Norfolk, and spend most of our time there.

London is a great place - much more things to do and to see

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you decide to come over to Europe for a visit - I could recommend hotels etc...
