The dealers usually don't ask. Either call or send your Motoring Assistant an e-mail and ask about the programmable options for your MINI. I have to bring mine back in the shop at some point because the auxilary audio input is on backorder and they don't have them yet, and their programming system was broken so they've gotta fix that before I can get programmed what I want.

My own Mini Cooper

Well,
my wife finally decided to let me get my own Cooper. He's not new, but only slightly used. Was even owned by my MA whom we ordered Gromit through. Mine, to be named Wallace (heh, get it, Wallace and Gromit? sorry, we're lame). Wallace is an '05 MC, JB/JB, Sport, Cold, h/k, Lapis Blue, Anthracite dash/headliner, iPod adapter, '06 MCSc 17" Bullet wheels, Invisashield, Xenons, Chrome Line Int, rear fog...only 12k miles!
Hopefully going first thing in the morning to trade in my gas-guzzling '05 Kia Sportage and pick Wallace up...if not, guess I have to wait till Tuesday :impatient
Anyways, thankfully I'll be driving my own Cooper at long last...and my obsession will come to fruition...as my wife doesn't let me drive Gromit all that much

You've only had Gromit for what, a week or so? That's pretty quick to move to a 2-MINI family... Mine should be shipped out shortly, but I still have to 2-3 weeks before it gets to me. I'm wondering if my wife will be wanting to trade in our Forester (our only car right now) a week or two after my JCW comes...

Anyway, congrats on both MINIs!
