Need to pop into this part of the forum more often soon as today I finalised my order and expet a late September/early October deliver of:

Chilli Red Cooper with white roof, mirrors, seven hole alloys and bonnet stripes, Pepper pack, Kaliedo red cloth and anthracite interior with sports seats,manual aircon, MFSW, CD boost, heated washer jets mirrors, ASC T, spacesaver spare.

The salesman ( Duncan at Fairbairns in Glasgow) was very nice as per usual and laughed at me for trading in my One so early after my girlfriend said "told you you would do this"

He spoke to me abou the Chilli pack and went through combinations but was amazed when I said I'm a fan of the seven holes (dunno why I just love em and they are sooo light, I have had big wheels on other cars and I think they ruin the ride slightly, plus I get no runflats

), and that I'm not a fan of leather as I sweat A LOT for hours after training.

Just too exited now, I did'nt think I would be as I have a Mini but its kicking in already WOO HOO

How long you had your ONE for? Are you going to lose much on depreciation?

MiniFEB29 · Aug 15th, 2003, 04:54 PM

It will be 6 months old when traing in and I lost £1000 on it not too bad I thought

I have just got it this arvo and I have been at work so only driven it home, too dark to go for a "proper" drive will get one tomorrow/Friday.

First impressions, I just love the look of it looks well "Mini", I have'nt noticed much difference in power handling, but I suppose that will come with time. One problem is that the interior lights do not come on with doors opening and follow me home is not working but I don't see that taking long to fix
