I'm thinking about swapping my 03 Cooper. Anyone have any idea what sort of waiting time there is in the UK currently.

Hello

I ordered my new ONE on Feb 11th, being built next week for delivery mid-March.

Thought it would have been longer, but no complaints from me


What are you thinking of changing to?

Tempted by an S but probably take another Cooper. Part of me thinks I should just stick with what I've got as it still makes me smile, and it still feels as good as new. Can't believe that I've had it nearly 3 years. Might just go have a browse over the weekend.

I'd be careful doing that if I were you :

I did that and look : http://www.mini2.com/forum/general-discussion/109885-much-more-than-i-bargained-some-pics-added.html

Hi

Ordered mine on 29th January and it's being delivered on March 1st.

A lot quicker than I thought.

Mmmm. Seems to be a common occurence from other comments. Believe that the Cooper is getting a new engine this summer so might be tempted to hold off for that. Have wait and see. Interested to see you trade in price, was that what you were expexcting? Not sure what a One goes for. Mine only has 19K miles so its still feels fresh.

Didnt know what to expect really. I believe the glass's guide says about £6500 and they reckon that they would put it up for about £8000 ish.

But they said that even though it seems there is nothing 'wrong' with the car when it goes into the workshop, they are bound to find something wrong with it and that then gets charged back to the sales dept. so they lose a bit there.
