More MINI Mysteries...

The launch for the Military sales program is tomorrow (3 March). The lo**l military dealer received 11 MCS today.

Of the 11, 1 had a "functional" hood-scoop The inner bracket is a honeycomb pattern, and this particular **r had every other column "open". I **n only guess that Mini intended to make them "functional" at one point, but then changed their mind... and somehow this **r got the "old" part.

Of the 5 on the floor that I had access to the inside... 3 had working cubbies/storage compartments. Maybe I'll go back and check the others.

I tried to discern some correlation, to no avail. HiFi and non HiFi each had working and non-working cubbies. I tried to make some sense of the VIN in order to get a pattern... but that didn't make immediate sense either. If anyone has the "code" for the VIN on the '07s... maybe I **n use that.

Man I sure want a working cubby! But instead of answers... just more mystery.

Does your computer not like having "c" and "a" right next to each other?

It's not just him - the thread about the rear parcel shelf subwoofer enclosure also converted "carry" into "**rry".

I know some people don't like California, but has "CA" turned into a curse word?

I believe this started in a thread about our friendly neighbor in the Great White North, Cananda.
