Hi guys!

Ive not posted on here in a while, please forgive me

Ive been pretty busy since the Poole Quay night in August! My MINI has covered what seems like a hell of a lot of miles in the last few months with me going all over the show from Birmingham to Kent and Eastbourne in between

Anyway, on September 15th I ordered a new MINI, a Cooper D!! Its dues on March 1st

Here's what i've ordered :

MINI Cooper D
Chili Red
White Roof
White Mirror Caps
White Bonnet Stripes
Clth/Lea Ray Carbon Black
CHILI Pack
Rear Spoiler
17" Webspoke Alloys
Automatic Air Conditioning
Multi-function Steering Wheel
Exterior Mirror Pack (inc Heated Mirrors and Washerjets)
Chrome Line Exterior
Smoker Pack (I dont smoke but want the ashtray Tongue

)
Colour Line Dark Grey
Additional Decor Rings
Interior Trim Fluid Silver
Bi-Xenon Headlights
6 Disc CD Changer (though im going to change this to Ipod i think)
White Indicator Lenses
Sat Nav

I got the TLC thrown in, and have a couple of other ideas up my sleeve for a couple more extras

I did consider having white alloys

I decided against it as thought they would be harder to keep clean, so what do i go and do?! Order an equally hard to keep clean set of silver alloys

89 days to go

But there's still time to get some white ones!

Think about it - Great fuel economy AND great looks!

Oh you can!

Remember - You're the customer! You can chop and change your mind all the time! They expect it!

And you will only kick yourself that you got silver alloys instead of having them in white for FREE!

Nice car but i have to agree with my Bud Aron, you need the white wheels, you will be regreting it after. Also then... dont tell anyone but you can be in the highly though of but very small and secret "white wheel club" that me and aron are in. Just think about it you know its a must.
