Hi fellow NAMers --

Just curious to know what freebies you scored when you purchased your MINI? With my R56, my MA gave me two leather key chains and some MINI Motoring stickers. Unfortunately, I didn't get a single thing when I purchased my F56 (from a different dealership).

-- GMSC

 

I got a Mini string type backpack, a Mini branded notebook and pen

 

My wife got a box of junk. When you spend $30K for a car and get a box of $10 of stuff you should be insulted not gratified.

My other two MINI's were purchased used and I saved money in lieu of a box of junk.

I don't like Santa Claus either/

 

Like Minni the Moocher I got a bunch of 'stuff', none of which was useful.

 

I cajoled the sales guy into a pair of floor mats, a T shirt, and a water bottle.

 

When I bought my used Clubman from the local Mini dealer, the salesman gave my two boys each an R56 pull-back car. Made the boys happy.

 

I received (4) Union Jack micro-fiber lens cleaning cloths, about 6x6" square. At least something I can use to clean my glasses for a while, wasn't really looking for anything free, just wanted my car!

 

A hat and a USB iPod connector. Both used on a regular basis. Mind you I had to ask for the hat.

 

A hat and a T shirt.

 

Offered different floormats but chose the boot mat instead. 2017 JCW Clubman.

 

Mine purchased used this past May from the original selling MINI dealer was a 3-yr lease turned-in with 17k miles just the day before. Folks that had it before included rear boot mat, folding window shade and wheel locks they bought for the MCS. No freebies thrown in by the dealer but I did negotiate hard plus had their PDR pro successfully remove a few nearly imperceptible door dings as part of the deal. I'm much more pleased that the car is pristine than getting a MINI branded keyfob or similar!

 

No Junk was offered. Bought a used 2011 Mini Countryman S (My 1st MINI Ever).
Salesman took me for a legit "Death Ride". ****ing guy could drive a Mini that's for sure. I most likely will never driver "her" that hard but it was impressive. Also the grin was stuck to my face for at least a half an hour. NE-How Over sharing just happy there a solid community of MINI's. Maybe a Rally's in my future any recommendations?


Thanks

When I got my used MINI the dealer gave me an extra $500, which I didn't even ask for, off an already good price.

Drive Hard. Drive Safe. Keep Grinning.
