Seats? Suspension?

Welcome to the wonderful world of the MINI!

Indeed, only the sports seats have lumbar support so it looks like you have them .

As for Sports+ suspension, I'm not sure if there is any way to tell visually... But I'm sure one of the more knowledgable members of this site will be able to tell you.

Happy motoring.

I don't think that's right, ant - I've got standard leather jobs, and they have the lumbar support.

Forgot to put my usual disclaimer on - I'm always willing to be prooved wrong. Maybe I should add it to my signature?!?

<skulks off back into the corner I came from>

Should be pretty big supports at the thighs and side of the back if they're sports. There is a thread comparing the 2 which I put a picture in but I have no idea what its called

congrats on your MINI, you'll soon get used to the attention and be able to lipread "is that a new MINI?" pretty quick!

sports seats are gorgeous (just had to say that!)

Alright groovy, long time no hear. Not long to wait now for your baby. Are you going on the Peaks run?

Fingers crossed I will be...if the car arrives that is!

Thanks all, Loving the car (just not loud enough, needs a sharper note), I spoke to the dealer, the leather was an accident, they didn't know it was on the car, but no they are standard seats and standard suspension.. The Sports + must be really hard then, 'cause the sports with 16" wheels is very hard to start with!
But the car is pure sex!!

Then the dealer gave me the accessories catalogue.. no fair, too much good stuff!

WHat did you order on your car if you don't mind me asking. As for the Lumbar support. Its only on Half Leather and Full Leather seats nothing to do with Sport seats.
You'd think they have it on the Clth seats but apparently not.
Happy Motoring BTW

Well, here in Oz you can't really 'order' a car (you can, but it takes ages for it to come from the factory), so you tend to just go through the cars that are coming and choose one.
I wanted red/white, 16" wheels', sports +, sports seats, TCS and panther black/panther black interior....
But there were none like that in the next 3 months... so.. I ended up with.
Silver/Black, 16" wheels, TCS and cloth/leather interior..

Know what, I couldn't be happier! the silver looks geat, actually I didn't have a huge problem with any of the colours!

We also get a few other accessories that I think the rest of the world has to get as options and miss a few things everone else gets..

So it was the silver car or a blue 'S', but that was stretching the budget a bit far!
