:eb: 2 Weeks Left Until New Mini, Any Thoughts?!

Hi,

My new Cooper is due to arrive 9th August 2004, here is my spec:

MINI COOPER 1.6 4-CYL 16V £12,100.00
Electric Blue £250.00
Clth/Lea OCTAGON Black £0.00
CHILI Pack £1,300.00
- 17" S-Spoke Alloy Wheels £370.00
- 3 Spoke Spts Lea St Wheel £0.00
- Chrome Line Exterior £0.00
- Front Foglights £0.00
- Interior Light Package £0.00
- Pass. Seat Height Adj. £0.00
- Radio BOOST £140.00
- Rear spoiler £0.00
- Sport Seats - Front £0.00
- Storage Compartment Pack £0.00
- Trip Computer £0.00
- Velour Floor Mats £0.00
ASC + T £100.00
Air Conditioning Auto £850.00
Alloy Wheels in White £0.00
CD Changer Prep £0.00
Central Rev. Counter £0.00
Darkened Glass £100.00
Elec Fold Exterior Mirrors £160.00
Front Seat Heating £190.00
Harman Kardon - Hi-Fi £350.00
Heated Mirrors/Washerjets £0.00
ISOFIX Child Seat System £0.00
Interior Trim, Alloy Patina £30.00
Multi-function on S/Wheel £160.00
Rain Sensor £0.00
Roof&Mirror Caps in White £0.00
Single CD Player £70.00
Smoker Package £0.00
Visibility Pack £200.00
Total Price £16,370.00

I can't decide whether to keep the 17" S-Spokes or put the 16" X-Lite Alloy on? I think I prefer the loko of the X-Lites.

Anybody know if retro-fitting the Cooper S Fuel Cap makes an identical replica of the factory fitted version on the Cooper S or if it slightly different?

Anyone know when facelift rear cluster white lights will be available?

If Mike is able to sort me out with a kit that'll allow an aftermarket HU to be fitted anyone any idea between the Sony CDX-M9900 or the Kenwood KVT-725DVD-B or Pioneer AVX-P7300DVD. Anyone know if putting a new headunit in will allow me to use the MFSW with it (fully funtional?) Also, does fitting a new HU mean I lose 100% of the Harmon Kardon benefits or only some?

Any help would be great!

I've included some pictures of things mentioned!

Hi Matt, Nice spec which your sure going to enjoy.
Noticed a few price discrepencies in your list though.. unless your dealer is doing you the deal at old prices
The Chilli pack is now up at £1500
Auto A/C is not the full £850, but the diff between the Manual that comes as standard in the Chilli & the Auto ..which is around £300ish (not sure on exact price)
Chrome line exterior is Not part of the Chilli, but a £50 option ..(same with Chrome interior at £80)
Better check with your dealer if you`ve got the new options list available for the Facelift version (July 2004 onwards)
Have Fun


EDIT << Just noticed its the COOPER you`ve ordered & NOT the S >>
Ignore All of the Above
Its that pic of the EB S that threw me off

Facelift White Lights

Had my new 05 cooper EB/W delivered on Friday - white lights will be arriving approx 2.5 weeks later, along with the body kit.

Why did you spec a £210 cd player if your going to change it for an aftermarket one?

Manual air con part of the chili pack? I think not, or I've been diddled out of £600!! And are heated irrors/washers not £40

Apart from that, sound like a great spec!!

Manual air-con is part of the Chili pk afaik.
S Spokes are the way to go I think..

Very nice looking spec btw..

According to mini.co.uk manual air con is part of the chili pk for the MCS, or am I misreading it.

Thanks guys, jst to clarify 'Restyle' mistook my order for a Cooper S, if you read he says 'EDIT forget the above I thought Cooper S'

Air con is not included at all on Chili pack for standard Cooper, look at my price list Air Con Auto £850.

Cheers,

Matt
