I was just wondering how long after you take delivery of your MINI before they send you the MINI Cooper new owners Welcome Kit? Unless I missed the memo that they don't do this any longer, I have yet to receive mine.

 

A coupe of months. I just called MINIusa and told them I didn't get one. They sent one out.

 

I got mine about 4 weeks after delivery. It was a pleasent surprise since I was expecting it a few months after delivery.

 

What is the content of this Welcome Kit?

 

We took delivery of MIB on 12/9/05 and got our welcome kit late Feb 2006.

 

ya.. what he said? whats in it

 

DON'T READ THIS IF U WANNA BE SURPRISED WHEN YOU GET YOUR WELCOME KIT !!!!!

trying to remember...it's been awhile...found mine in a cabinet...
1. an ink pen w/a little floating Mini in it
2. cards in a CD case that had "Mini Messages" on them
3. the encyclopedia of open motoring (I have a convertible)
4. a business card holder
5. business sized cars w/pics o/Minis on 1 side a cutesy sayings on the other
6. 2 Interstate Highway bingo playing cards
7. body decals (for human skin not Minis )
8. a nice thick book with attached lined paper & a rubber band closure

MBE something else that I took out & forgot about

 

Thank you Bamatt....

 

9 Months

 

Gosh, I guess I'll get sometime. Thanks for all the posts.

 

Let's hope you get it. In Canada they give you a lovely package of nothing!!

 

Yeah, but in Canada you have beer, great hockey, curling, moose and great fishing. Why do you need a welcome kit?! HA!

(Just kidding.)

 

if you're ordering new, like i recently did, don't forget to tell them that you're a member of NAM - my dealership is giving me a free set of winter mats, the extra cup holder, and the glovebox organizer (of which the mats are what i'm looking forward to)

 

I told them who I was on NAM and I didn't get any extras.

Starting in 2005 all MINIS got the big gulp cup holder on the down tube next to the radio.

 

This is the reply I got from the MINI Customer Svcs Relations
"Welcome kits go out to our new MINI owners within about 2-3 months of purchase of the MINI." Basically, 2-3 months from the date you took delivery. I'm still waiting, got FUNMNI on 3/14/06...I'll keep you posted when I get it and if the contents have changed.

 

We got ours in about 2 1/2 months after we took delivery, we also got a tin of delicious chocolate chip cookies from our dealer (MoN - Mini of Nashville) .

 

But no welcome kit. Have you ever tried fishing for moose?

 

No, but I hear they really do a number on a MINI if one gets in the way.

 

Did you ever get your MINI welcoming kit?? I didn't get one, but met someone the other day who did. Our purchases were just two days apart. I'm feeling rooked!

 

My wife received two of them after she got her 04 MC.

 

Don't forget the black fleece blanket with the MINI wings emblem on it. or atleast that's what my GF got with her odered mini. I wonder if Ill get one since I bought mine used

 

Well, not only did I finally get my welcome kit, but I got TWO of them! Both came the same day via USPS. I thought one was for the PW/B MC that is on its way here on the Freedom, but they were both for my CR/W MCS. I picked up my car on March 4, so that was about 7-8 weeks for delivery of the kit. Now we can play car bingo!

 

Sweet.. i cant wait to get mine!

 

One month to the day for my 05 MCS and my 06 MC! Exactly the same package and with the cute little stickers. I read somewhere else that MINI no longer sent these stickers out with the packages, but just got our welcome package last week and they were in there!

 

Hmm. I never got one. I'll call MINIusa and strighten it out
