I am so glad to have gone to the event.
It was a pure marketing exercise, more launching the new MINI logo, with the preview of the F60. But, the F60 is much nicer looking in the metal. There were no reps from the Dealers represented at all, only staff from the marketing company. (One guy was telling me that the upcoming hybrid will be MINIs first electric power vehicle, I had to tell him about the R56 MINIe!)
Agreed Ger, after having the Xenons, it would be difficult to go back to halogens, especially when on back roads.
Anyway, I put my name down for a test drive, when the vehicles are distributed for that. I just loved the interior. More than I thought I would!
I did start playing with configurator, the F60 SD is only available with an automatic, so I think the return to petrol could be on the cards.
I will have to use that mantra.....it is so right!
Sorry, Ger, no email back yet. Problem must still be there.
