    Certainly an interesting read all round ... however, if I was waiting on one and wasn’t getting everything for the first price I wouldn’t be happy especially given the fact it’s not cheap.

    Extra money for what really is Sat nav and heated seats nothing short of shocking !

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    Think it depends on how the cars going to be used. For someone who’s going to use the car everyday the Touring Pack is worth it. For someone who’s going to use it as a weekend toy I don’t think the touring pack is worth it and certainly wouldn’t bother me

    The only thing I could do without on the TP is the armrest ,it’s fine on clubman and countryman but gets in the way (for me) on the hatch
    The cars in front are New MINI Scotland

    For those on here ordering or considering ordering one - if manual was an option, would you choose it?


    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs

    As nice as a manual is and how involved it makes you feel in the whole process, sadly they just don’t change quick enough. The time lost in changing gear costs valuable time in getting you from A to B. I can see why they have went with an auto setup on the GP.

    To answer your question Gordon I probably would go for an auto even though I love a manual.

    Great news. Not a fan of the touring pack but if it suits why not.

    The interior looks very spartan without the TP
