Wow. I've seen hundreds of pictures of GP's before, but I'm still amazed by that car. Great photos.
I really love the Recaro seats, (which we never got here in the USA). The JCW steering wheel is an excellent choice.
TOP DRAWER!

jonnieoh said it all. Very nice GP pics! There's something about the "stereotypical" British cottage, brick driveway & blustery weather with the pinnacle of quintessential British car (at least to use yanks) that makes it all perfect. JCW Recaro's look amazing as the stockers in our GPs were lacking in the lateral support. Leather/Alcantara steering wheel is also quite trick as all of our GPs came with the stock wheel which is also lacking in feel. Red stitching on e-brake and shift-lever covers is very nice. Oh and the lack of glove-box, an option that we don't have on this side of the pond makes it more special for us to view!
WOW GREAT CAR! Thank you for posting the photos! You made my day! I personally sold 5 or 6 GPs. I even came close to buying one, but decide not to because of the lack of back seats. We have 2 kids!

Of course, the car is wonderful! Congrats! But I think the photography is amazing! You have a very nice touch with a camera.

I paid roughly the equivalent of $24,000 (based on current exchange rate) for my GP - it only has 10k miles on the clock

I am going to MINI UNITED as well, but they don't sell car seats ( at least they didn't in the past), however, I will be interested to get them , too. Maybe a group buy?
