Got a R53 loaner while waiting for my R56
First I got MFSW'ed and had to reorder and then for some reason my Mini was stuck at the port for about 10 days. So my dealer gave me a new R53 MCS Auto loaner (yeah my MA is awesome).
So, I've been enjoying the R53 for a week now and even took it for a long trip. And on Monday I get my R56 finally.
There are already a few things that I like and dislike about the R53. After driving my R56 for about a week, when I'll be in a better state to compare the two, I'll post a detailed comarison.

Fwiw, if I were in your shoes I would ask him to find out why the car was held up there - sometimes cars are damaged in transit and require repaint/repair and I would want to know any details about that myself...
Oh and while you have the MCSa be sure to have fun wringing it out in manual mode, work the gears for max performance and enjoy the whine
