How can I play around with building & configuring a Mini as though it were 2006?

Are there scans of the old online ordering configs posted somewhere (for the USA market)? I've seen plenty of old material available on ebay, but I don't know what to buy- a lot of it is press release type stuff, & I'm not sure if there were physical ordering forms at the time. I'd be happy to buy a brochure if someone knows what they're called

I'm looking for the 2006 version of this https://www.miniusa.com/tools/learni...opers/build/0/

I've seen some info about the <2004, which helped clarify some of the options (like if you're looking for Xenon headlights you'd also be getting DSC/Stripes/fog lights in the sport package), but haven't found the 2005/2006 version yet.

Thanks, that'll help clear up a lot of questions that have come up while trying to make sense of how cars get optioned the way they do

I was hoping that maybe the Wayback Machine still had a functional build page because it'd be fun to do,
but alas, the flash doesn't seem to wanna work...

However,
this one does work:

It was fun playing with!
