I picked up my LiB/W MCS 07 tonight. The transaction took a little longer because they ordered the wrong wheels. I wanted the white bridge spokes and it came with the star design instead. Once they figured out what went wrong (a keying error at the dealership), they asked what I wanted them to do. They would have tossed in a slightly longer maintenance period, but I really wanted the bridge spoke wheels. They should have them in a couple of weeks, so we'll motor back the 200 miles from home and get them swapped out.

My MA felt really bad and threw in a set of checkered license plate holders for the anguish.

I've added a few picture to my gallery. I'll take some better pictureswhen we get home.

 

Congratulations on bringing Belle home! She sounds lovely! I feel your excitement as we just built Scarlett today. Hope her new shoes arrive soon and you have many years of Happy Motoring!

 

Congrats! Looks very nice. You were right to go with the white bspokes....really looks sharp.

 

:-D congrats yo... enjoy and don't let ppl ride ur tail...

 

Congratulations on getting Belle home!

 

Looks sweet - congrats!

 

Congrats on your new MINI. I got the wrong wheels too and went back after 2 weeks to get the correct ones. It was a drag to drive 200 miles back to the dealer, but it was nice to have the first 700 miles or so on a different set of tires. You'll be happy to get exactly what you wanted.

 

Lovely! And I think you should not feel bad about at least asking for the extra year of maintenance or something. I hope the wheel situation doesn't distract you too much from the joy!

 

Thanks! We're home now after driving 260 miles yesterday and today. It was great fun! Plus I think we got pretty good mileage. We took non-interstate roads home and took it easy just enjoying the ride.

And to think we'll have to take another road trip in a couple weeks for the new wheels...

Here is the mileage we got on the first 260 miles. Better than the EPA listed.
