So what did everyone get when the bought there mini. All i wanted was a stuffed bulldog for my daughter :( was a no go. Had topay for mats just seems strange never had to pay for mat before. hmm. OK so what did everyone get if anything..

 

There are lots of threads on this same topic already...but since you asked, I got free window tints and free installation of my floor mats .

 

.. I got mats, a couple t-shirts for the girlfriend and I, and a hat... they did kind of owe me though. The minute I drove off the night, late on a Sunday, the check engine light went on.. I got all the stuff before I left.. I guess it was Karma..

 

free install of floor mats as well as also a super tacky chrome liscense plate frame with no other than the name of the dealership on it
Oh Yeah and a firm handshake

 

I got a bill from MINI Financial...

 

I got screwed. Not by the dealer, but by the wife. But at least it was free.

 

She was that excited when you showed her your "Mini"...

(sorry.. I had to)

 

Of course. It was a big change for her to handle something small....

 

So, she's used to handling something big, like an SLK?..

.. ya know.. this could go on for days..

 

I got a Cincinnati Mini lounge chair.

 

Nada...

 

I got two (had to ask for the 2nd one for the wife) of those short, red, mini go cups. Made in China musta cost the dealer at least $0.25 each, oh yeah free mat install ... that one really saved me lots of time. Somehow I had to pay another $49 for the guage install, then they got the housing a few º's off plumb.

 

Well, so far I'm getting free rubber mats and free installation of the bonnet stripes... we'll see if i get anything else when it eventually comes in and I go pick it up!

 

I got a box of mini mints! My used (2004) didn't even have floor mats so I had to pay for those. I would have rather had free mats than mints...oh well.

 

oh yeah i forgot about the mints

 

Mints? I missed out! ;-)

It started with free cupholder and rubber mats. A few things got confused along the way, though, so the dealer made it up to me by paying for a rental car for 8 days (car got delayed and it left me wheels-less in suburbia) and giving me a free iPod adaptor w/free install. I was quite happy!

 

Prior to delivery, my dealer sent me a non-official key chain and a birth certificate.

When I took delivery, I got the free rubber mats. I also found what looked like a tow hook in the clovebox. I checked the tool kit in the boot and the real tow hook was in there. I guess it was used during transit and the guy who prepped it just tossed it into the glovebox.

After I took delivery, I got a $50 gift certificate good towards any parts or accessories.

I remember one forum member who got a cake from the dealer

 

Rubber mats, and free installation of some aftermarket bonnet stripes we had sent directly to the dealer.

 

I got a sun burn from my four hour drive home in the new cabrio.



Oh, they gave me a nice MINI keychain and a MINI hardcover book too. And they had the MINI in the showroom under a car cover when I arrived. They called the other employees around and did an unveiling with a "ta da!" It was pretty cool.

 

My saleslady gave me a handful of goodies during delivery including A Mini/Castrol oil pouch full of candy. Mini mints, Mini car "shampoo", interior cleaner and wheel cleaner and a Mini sun visor mount CD carrier. She also gave me a $10 gift cert. for accessories/toys. They took off the OEM cupholder, without charge. In the mail MINI USA sent me a care package including the Mini motoring diary, which I use for onboard notes/scratch pad.

 

Darn and all I got was mini mints.....no worries...the smiles when driving are free and that's priceless!!

 

Oh, I could be a Mastercard commercial.....floor mats for my used Mini $100.00, Bonnet stripes, $200.00.....smiling nonstop every time I get behind the wheel....priceless!!!!

 

Rasmussen includes rubber floor mats for free by default. Great idea around here. The rep asked me if I wanted anything else. No cool stuff on display so I took one of those snazzy red S keychains.

Oh, and I get about five cups of pretty good coffee every time I go in for service... Can we say wired?

 

When I picked up my Mini I got a free cup holder, free embroidered floor mats, 2 braided key chains, free ipod installation and then the dealership mailed to my home a nice black fleece blanket with the mini logo embroidered on it, what a nice touch (wrapped with a pretty red ribbon)!! I love mini....

 

My MINI is still in production so I don't know if they do any freebies at time of pick up, but the dealer did give me a $200 accessory credit that I put toward rubber floor mats and bonnet stripes.
