A little box with two speakers inside. They were a PITA to put together but they work. Interesting. Anyone else get any?

I got a pair of these last year actually.

The biggest PITA was the folds seemed to want to bow out over time, making them a bit rolly polly.

Some forceful "help" with a pair of flat pliers sorted them out... they live on my workbench now.

I've been a mini owner for about ten years now.

Over the years they've sent all kinds of cool stuff. I got a bag at some point, a hollowed out book with "spy gear" in it, an unofficial owners manual, a "messaging kit"... The list goes on.

You're going to love being a mini owner!

I bought my first Mini in 2009 Clubman. I have a lease now (2013 Justa Hardtop) and a 2016 JCW 6mt Hardtop sitting at the VPC in Brunswick,GA.

that stinks!! We have gotten something with every Mini we've gotten. Not sure how they know to send it. The speakers came addressed to me when all our Minis have been purchased in my husband's name. Weird.

I'm on my fourth MINI, and only gotten anything for my 2013 Clubbie. Two were used, so I doubt they would send anything for this, but at least for my F56 I would've expected something, but it's been 10 months an I've gotten nothing knowing MINI, something will probably come after 2 years, my first goodies came after 9 months on my Clubman

I've gotten a package with every MINI I've purchased, three so far. Maybe only those who finance through MINI/ BMW Financial get the packages?

Edit: forgot to mention that I just bought my F56 on June 30th and yesterday I received my package of MINI goodies!

I've never financed with Mini/BMW, and all of mine have been new.

I am registered with the Owners Lounge, I wonder if that has something to do with it?

It seems odd that the freebies would be so inconsistent.
What about the mini magazine? I've been getting those every few months since I bought my '12 countryman.

I've never gotten MINI Magazine. It's crazy how it works.

No great loss if I'm honest. The content wasn't really all that interesting to me.
