Congratulations! I haven't received one recently (since my newest MINI is 2 years old almost), so not sure what is in the kit now. One way you can find out...... OPEN IT!

Yeah, I received three of those since I got my car late 2007. Nothing the last few months though.

There are some other fun things too...





The box is empty, but wait a bit, what's written here on the flap?



Should I believe that and toss out the box....

Honestly, when I got mine I thought it was just a bunch of junk I'll never use and would rather they have not sent it at all. Waste of money, waste of resources. Now it has to be recycled.

Look what was behind that flap. I can not show what's inside because non-owners and others are lurking here

Are you enjoying your yellow Mini?

Take a picture of that note pad thing that is wrapped along with the pen.

Absolutely! Planning to show her Florida next April all way down to Key West.

Here is that notepad I like it very much. The MINI pen I like even more than my old WaterMan




How is your friend's MINI doing?

I am glad to hear you are enjoying your Mini!

My friend, Lynn, had to order another car from a different dealer because she had a dispute with the first dealer about pricing. She will pick up her 2010 Clubman this coming Saturday, 11/7.

What is inside that notebook? Just lines?

I loved getting that. I lost my pen though. I thought that was the coolest item, too. :(

No one told you the difference between getting the 8 ball and getting the die?

The pen is absolutely awesome. I continually check E-Bay and e-mail my dealer hoping to score another one. I was told they were discontinued.

Very fun. Enjoy!

I was introduced to the MAFK in MINI's Owner's Lounge, but have no idea how MINI decides who is to receive one.

I'd love to find one on my doorstep. MINI definitely knows how to generate that MINI mystique: I'm hooked.
