Placed the order!!

We test drove quite a few cars over a couple of weekends. Test drove the Mini last and I knew I wanted one instantly! After much deliberation and many hours one the configurator... finally went in and plunked down the deposit on a Clubman S:
SSM w/BLK Top & BLK Sport Stripes; Convenience/Comfort, Cold Weather & Premium Pkgs; Bridge Spoke w/all weather tires; Manual w/LSD; English Oak, Chrome line & Anthracite headliner; Xenon, Driving & Rear Fog Lights; HiFi & HD; Roof Rails.

Now comes the hard part... waiting.

Congratulations! I've had my Clubman S for about 2 weeks - loving every minute of it! Be sure to check in the other forums to assist in tracking the status of your new MINI.

Congratulations! Sounds like a sweeet ride! I just finalized everything today with my MA and had him hit the "send" button. What a relief! (I had been hemming and hawing about a lot of the choices). I think yours is going into production before mine ad I've already been waiting over two months so you're doing well.
