That looks great. I ordered mine with the Oak Trim. I was curious to see how many others had it. It was not a listed option for the 2015, but I researched and found it could be installed.

I have the Rolls Royce Goodwood Walnut in my R58 . Bet it would really shine in the sun on the R59.

Yea, the real ones are rare , they only come in the English oak for Gen 2 MINIs. They never put one on the MINI Goodwood, its just has the RR black leather.

I didn't get this. If I change the wheel I'll go for Alcantara or some other leather product instead. I wish they had done wood covers for the spokes though, I'd have got those.

I wish also. The thicker alcantara has a very nice feel.

I might get a spare set and see whether a hydrodip wood effect would look reasonable. A couple of coats of polyurethane to get the deep shine and it might look reasonable!
