2008 MCCS owners manual

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a copy of the MCCS owners manual? I found a 2007 MCS manual online and got that downloaded, but would rather be reading the MCCS. Do dealerships have spare copies of this or does one copy come per car? Looking for reading material to bide the time waiting on our Sept delivery.

Here's how I got my PDF copy:

Go to MINIUSA.com
Sign into the Owner's Lounge.
At the top of the Owner's Lounge screen is CONTACT US, click it.
Send them an email requesting your PDF copy. That's how I got mine.
Mine was sent the next day.

I also appreciate the link, however, that manual seems to focus on cars that have the optional nav system. Any ideas how to get the manual for a Clubman w/o the nav system?

Thanks in advance. This forum rocks!

Here is another version without the nav system.

Again, thanks mnt! I was just skipping past the nav stuff, but prefer the manual without it. Once I get that printed, I wonder how many times me and hubby can read it over and over this summer? Delivery not until early Sept!

I printed my in color and had it bound. Carried it around with me for a couple of months while I waited for my car. It did help so I knew what the MA was talking about when he walked me through how to set everything when I picked up my car.

Enjoy. Reading the manual and this site does make the wait a litter easier.

Thanks, Mtncooper!
I wanted to be able to go over the car before delivery.
This is great!

Thanks to everyone who provided access to the 2008 manual. My car is due to arrive in about a month and I really appreciate being able to bone up in advance.

Does anyone have a link to the separate bluetooth manual?

MNT Cooper and I are living in parallel universes.
I requested a copy of the manual, printed, bound and memorized it before the Clubman arrived at the dealer.
My MA was surprised, but not too much, when I knew how to program the key fob.

i tried that. i also explained that it's a 500 mile round trip to my dealer. here's the response i got:

"Thanks for writing MINI. Cheers on your new purchase, how exciting for you!

If you would like a copy of the Owner's Manual, please contact the parts department at your local MINI center. They would be happy to assist you. If you need it, you can find a list of our MINI dealers and their contact information on our website, http://www.miniusa.com/link/findadealer/dealerlocator."

i'm so displeased at being blown off by them that i'm thinking of canceling my order and buying a different car. i've got four cars - it's not like i need another mini.

I would like to add my thanks for the link, I've down loaded it and now I have about 2 months to read the whole thing before clubbie arrives!

Much thanks for the manual

This way I can quiz my MA intelligently during the walk-around (I'm a week 28 Clubman.)
Thanks
Peter

That's funny, I got the same exact canned response, verbatim, from MINI. I think some of their agents just don't have a clue...

I contacted MiniUSA twice.
Once I had a great response(MCCs pdf manual) and the second was a chucklehead that didn't read what I'd written, as above.

does the same artist (for lack of a better word) provide the illustrations for every single owners manual for every single car since the beginning of time. don't you think that MINI could come up with something a little quirkier?
