Greetings all.

My name is Tony, and I have just brought myself a Mini Cooper S Cabrio. I pick it up on Thursday, and time is just not going quick enough! :D

I have learnt a lot whilst browsing this forum, and look forward to contributing when I have learnt enoug to say something worthwhile.

Cheers

Nil Time

Thank you for the welcome - much appreciated! OK here is a photo that I took of it yesterday, just after I had signed up.

I am trading a Citroen C2 on it - a lovely car, but nowhere near the grunt of the Cooper S. The dealer was great - I got to take it out for over an hour, through some great hilly roads...smooth, grunty power, with very quick and precise handling, which is something I am certain that you all know!

nice car tony. is it just me or are the seats of the mini in the background different colours to one another? nice number plate aswell (yours or dealers)?

Thanks, minidrifter...I rather suspect that a trick of the light (sun/shade) is responsible for the different seat colours! I have been offered the plates...but to be honest, I am not overly enthused with personalised plates...people remember them for the wrong reasons! 8)

Only 3 more sleeps to go!

Different seats would have been very special!

As for the heated seats..no, I did not for 2 reasons...

1. It was a demo with 500 km on it, so basically I had to take what it had.

2. I enjoy the cold...tomorrow I am taking off on a 3 day motorcycle ride to SW Victoria...in the middle of the predicted rain and hail. That says a lot for my ability to withstand cold..and the somewhat precarious state of my sanity! :P

How are they to work for, xplosion? From a sales and customer service point of view, they seem the quite a bit better than some Melbourne dealers.
