Defy, call around as was recommended. Based on response I've read here a MCS C might have a longer wait than a MC C. I ordered a MC C on 3/1 and took delivery last Friday, 4/4. 34 days order to receipt!

Just 1 Clubman will be joining the family of the classic and the convertible (in sig).
Our new baby, "Koko Fix" is on her way over the pond right now! We've got neighbors who ordered as well, and we're hoping to schedule delivery together so we can go twisty together!

It sounds familiar. I ordered my HC Clubman S in October. It finally reached port on Sunday. A week ago we went to a dealer party for the Clubman. I took my wife who has hazed me for months. I figured she would be out of there in 1/2 hour. 2 1/2 hours later, I had to drag her out of there. Bottom line, she bought a MCS the next day and took delivery last Saturday. YOU ARE DOOMED and this website will give you no symppathy or show you any mercy! GOOD LUCK!

I've been thinking of names for my clubman. All of my minis have been
named OAF, in honor of my 59 Morris Mini Minor with british plate 776 OAF.Since they've all been red with full union jack roof it was kind of
appropiate. New clubman is hot choclate so it doesn't fit very well. In a break with tradition I think i'll call it " Gingerbread Man". Run as fast as you
can.

I'll be putting my BBS's on my clubman as long as 15's look good on the clubman.
What color is your roof? I think bronze could look really good on some of the HC clubmans depending on their roof color.

yah...if you've got a silver roof, I think the polished lips would be a better choice than ALL bronze.

Hey everyone. Since a lot of the Hot Chocolate owners seemed to order the Hot Chocolate Lounge Leather, I was wondering what Interior Surface choice you went with? I am leaning toward the Brushed Alloy as I liked the look of it and it didn't show finger prints, but I was not able to see it with the Hot Chocolate leather in person. Any opinions?

Bronze 18" wheels are on the list for us for the summertime. That was are first choice for color of a wheel. Now to decide what type of wheel. Anyway bronze wheels should look great. We have cream line interior and picked English oak for the dash trim.
