There seems to be some confusion over the supply of the latest DVD disc (2004-2). Either on new cars or as an extra from the dealer. This is what I have managed to pick out from earlier posts and from my dealer and MINI UK.
1. Cars from around August time were supplied with the TMC firmware and instructions but the old disc (2004-1)
2. Cars from mid October now have the above but with the correct disc.
3. Talking to MINI Uk this morning the price has been adjusted by a few hundred pounds to reflect this. However surely if your car was ordered in say April/May you would have paid the old price and got the new disc?
4. Some dealers are giving this disc away free.
5. Some dealers are charging (up to £200)
I, unfortunately, come under nos 1 & 5.
Luckily we have this forum, which is an excellent way of arguing our point. For example MINI Uk said that the new disc will be available from dealers in January. But I know from here that is not entirely true!
So what is the score? As my dealer and Mini Uk are playing ping pong
Who here is struggling to get their new disc?
Who is lucky enough to have a generous dealer?
and er...who really doesn't care?
