I totally agree. I Just ordered an Astro black S with silver roof, silver C pillars and sport stripes. There was one on the lot and it looked sweet!

Not mutch, it is possible to adjust in height but only when you take them appart....

They really have a perfect position! Best mod on the car!!

Just love the front shots of your Cooper Clubman (OK, I love them all!) because there's just something about the Cooper's bonnet/hood and grill that is so perfect in its simple lines.

Boy am I glad that I already ordered my car before I saw the JCW seats... JBCOLA-your car is stunning. Love the combination.
LADYGODIVA_That tan seat combination is sweet. Beautiful cars all.
Cheers,
John

Beautiful pics! For those of waiting in the long queue, its nice to see so many details in everyone's MINIs.

I have a question for Terry and his BRGClubbie. Our interior should almost be exactly like yours. Great pics! My question is, you have the hot chocolate gear shift accessory and you have the English Oak wheel. Shouldn't you have the English Oak shifter ****? Or does choosing the HC replace the wood **** with the HC leather one?

Nevermind my question above, I got my answer today from my MA. Seems that the 2 boots are separate items, about $100 ea. Seems she didn't think to suggest them to me when I called 2wks ago to add on the HC selector and E-brake. Thought that was silly of her, why would I want the HC handles but not HC boots? Anyway, canceled both of those accessories and will just go standard on all except for the English Oak **** that comes with the steering wheel. In my MINI ordering experience, not all MAs know about the features. I've learned more from NAM and hopefully have enlightened my MA with the things I've learned.

Don't know about the European market nor pricing. The one seen in the pics is the first ever made since I loaned my car as a design and development mule. Sounds real nice and is quiet at idle and cruising with no drone at speeds yet attained. It is gives good sound under throttle but is not overwhelming. No data on performance gains. I'll be tracking it in August to see how it handles and performs in an aggressive arena.

Ok... thanks... and if you have any new info, don't hesitate to contact me... I could be interested for a similar exhaust...

Then, if you can record (video or sound only) the result... I am also interested...
