Meant to be picking up my Cooper S today, but because of negotiations to you know what. I will now have to wait until 11am Friday (27/6)

How can I hold out? Should I go down to the dealership and take a peek?

MiniMan7 · Jun 25th, 2003, 08:45 PM

I'd say go and take a peek, it'll make you feel much better.

Nice.....my very similar IB/WH will be arriving 20th July.

Great choice of color if I may say so.

Shamster · Jun 25th, 2003, 10:47 PM

Best of luck Kinster - MartinL has the same taste as you - he's got one coming as well!

Kinster · Jun 26th, 2003, 07:58 PM

Went to the dealers today to drop off my insurance certificate. They were kind enough to show me my car. It's a goddamn beauty. It was even ready, but my insurance starts tomorrow

Will post pics

LMB · Jun 26th, 2003, 08:04 PM

So did you pay the £750?

Kinster · Jun 26th, 2003, 08:08 PM

yeah, the invoice says it's £709.50...

LMB · Jun 26th, 2003, 08:14 PM

Got a good deal there I recon

Kinster · Jun 26th, 2003, 08:20 PM

Cheers LMB, I didn't really want to be too greedy. I thought halving it was good enough for me

LMB · Jun 26th, 2003, 08:23 PM

Looking forward to seeing the pics.

If you ask me Friday is the best day to pick your car up. It gives you the whole weekend to have some fun.

Kinster · Jun 27th, 2003, 12:19 PM

I'm off for another drive

richhamer · Jun 27th, 2003, 01:07 PM

That is gorgeous!!

Indi and White: the best colour.

LMB · Jun 27th, 2003, 01:15 PM

Very nice Kinster

Shame about the plant growing in the passenger seat

First impressions?

Martin L · Jun 27th, 2003, 01:21 PM

Lovely car mate

The magnesium door panels look fab

I may just have to change my spec again.....

Speedd · Jun 27th, 2003, 01:32 PM

Congrats Kinster

Gr8 Colour combo and interior

All the best

Dom · Jun 27th, 2003, 02:06 PM

fantastic mate... same spec as I was going to go for next year

AidenL · Jun 27th, 2003, 02:28 PM

Very nice, congrats, and enjoy the motor !

Shamster · Jun 27th, 2003, 02:56 PM

very nice - think I might go for that combo next!

Bullett · Jun 27th, 2003, 04:35 PM

Exactly the same as mine is going to be (not the lapis blue though)

Kinster · Jun 27th, 2003, 06:37 PM

Thanks for the comments guys. Very different to my Cooper in first gear and finding it very hard to keep it under 4500 revs

Now I'm considering white v-spokes like Martin

Gonna search for some pics.....
