The Openometer - Daft Gimmick or Must-Have Option? Now I'm getting down to final spec of my R57, I'm struggling over the "Openometer" decision!

I love it Ian, I think it's such a MINI thing, I'd have to go for it. Does it cost any extra to spec it?
It probably is a bit of a gimmick, but it's in keeping with the whole spirit of the MINI cabrio ownership

I love it, perfect MINI gadgett. Apparently on the test drives the enginers were putting on their sheets the openometer readings too

It's a quirky gimmick of course, but that's part of the whole MINI thing.
At the end of the day, it's your car. I doubt it will have any effect whatsoever on resale value so if you want it, spec it!
