    Very nice, like the Alloy's too.

    The Black Roof I have a love hate relationship with. I like it on my car but it shows everything in the wrong light. I have to emit my roof is actually quite good. Think the dealers think you’re a bit special needs ( hope no offence light hearted comment and all) when your standing looking at split new car roofs for swirls for a comparison actually inside the dealers.

    Worst offender is the Bird poo that can mark it in 0-60 seconds if you don’t wipe or notice it quick.
    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    No offence taken!

    Considering it was a Pre Reg and I had no choice in any of the options I think I've landed on my feet. I had a coloured roof on my last Mini (BR Green) and loved the fact it wasn't black or white, but I actually really like the look of the black roof on this one.

    The night I viewed the car was last Thursday when we had the gales - could barely see the car through the rain! I haven't bought a new car from a showroom for years - last ones have been through staff car scheme so you just order it and they deliver it to your door so no opportunity to check for swirls. I'll make sure when I take it in for servicing they don't clean it (and obviously the same when I buy my next one).

    I'm now off to look at the car care forum to sort out my list of must buys

    Hi Glorious,

    Hope you see this or the PM I sent you

    Could you please advise if your car came with the TLC service pack? Was it included in the price or did you pay extra for it?

    Thanks,
    KenL
