How long did it take

How long did it take for you to notice that your front windows go down about an inch when you open the doors. I got my car on May 5 and I first noticed it about the middle of August. Hmmm I was trying to clean a spot off the lower rear corner of the passenger side window. I could see it when the door was closed, but not when I opened it. DUH

Noticed it the day I brought home the first of The Twins (PW).

You must have been SO mesmerized by your MINI's beauty that you just missed it for a while.

Yea I noticed it the day I went to the dealer for a test drive, thats alright though its not something you expect to see on most cars... My passengers are always asking me why my windows go down when you open the door. Its pretty obvious if you just take a moment to look at it

I noticed during my tests drive as well. It does make it kind of tricky for washing the windows!

First time I drove my MINI was actaully the first time I ever sat in a MINI. Once I found the hand to get out (it took about a minute) I was awed by the moving window. It is still quite nifty. Got to love the little things.
