'Box of motoring fun'

Anyone have any of these items for sale? I bought my MC used and feel like I've missed out on the experience.

PMs or replies to this post are best. Thanks!

Edit: Can this be moved to the marketplace? Thanks.

You could try calling 1-866-ASK-MINI and ask them to send you one. They might!

They almost certainly will send you something if you ask nicely.

I asked nicely and this was there reply:

Hi Ellis,

Thanks for contacting MINI. Congrats on your new MINI Cooper.

Unfortunately, we are only able to send out MINI Welcome Kits to original owners. You are still able to register for the MINI Owner's Lounge through miniusa.com. I apologize that we are unable to fulfill your request.

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

LET’S MOTOR.

i got one when i bought my mini. but after looking at the picture in the ebay listing. everything i got was almost completely different. maybe i got the 'new' stuff that r56 drivers recieved.
cause one of the little things it gave me was cool things to do with stuff in your car but i didnt have ANY of them cause it was all for an r56.

That sounds like some BS. I called the other day because I wanted one also and the dude I had told me if they have one, they'll send it. It they don't, they will send a postcard letting me know. He also took my name, address, phone# and my VIN.
