>>not true .. I bought a demo, and got the goodie package yesterday

Excellent! You are the first one I've heard of. Also, they may not have had the car listed as "Demo" status on their internal paperwork yet.

I wish I could answer that - but no - I don't know the reasoning behind it.

My guess would be that once it is put in "Demo" status at the dealer, technically, they own it. So no need to send the dealer a "gift pack". :smile:


Chow!

Maybe the dealer is hogging your gift packs!

Picked up Sadie 7/1/02, got mug when they shipped to all owners in August or September 2002 after all the Americans griping about cup holder size, got Christmas cards from dealer, then MA gave me road game and unscented "air freshener" when I was in there a couple of months ago, but nothing from MiniUSA since last year.

Well, I finally got some free stuff. Mechanical problems that have yet to be fixed.

But, I heard of a guy here who got this really cool book with over 60 pages. And, he only has to return one page a month for the next 60 months....with a payment.
