I dont think you can buy any of the dealer items that MINI has, they send them to the dealers from time to time.

kinda like the posters and banners from MINI, they have no part number or anything.

when my MA wouldn't budge on the MSRP, I considered an ultimatum:
"I'll take the car if you can fit that cone in it"

But I was lucky enough to get the car I wanted off the lot and the trade in offer I got more than made up for the lack of negotiation on price.

News flash:

Hi Kimberly,

Thanks for contacting MINI. That seems to be a popular question.

I am sorry to say, the cones are only available to MINI dealers for purchase. You may consider speaking with one of them to see if they would give or sell you the cone when they change the displays in the dealership.

If there are further questions I can assist with, please feel free to drop me an e-mail. I will be happy to lend a hand.

LET’S MOTOR.

question/comment:
I was wondering how much would it cost me to buy one of the large cones that the dealers have and how much would it cost to purchase one for our local club? Thank you for your time.
