I'd love to see this, too, but I'm sure it'll just make me jealous. We just couldn't justify adding that to our order. Plus, you can't get it with BRG, even though it seems like they'd look great together!

I'll supply the same as soon as it gets off the Otello which is about 1300 mile off the coast of NY

I will try to get a couple off tomorrow. We just got our Hot Chocolate Clubman S last week. Love it!

I worked on 1 all day long @work. It is very nice interior. I am really not a brown fan. But the interior is sweet. Out of the box it is really soft and looks
broken in even though its brand new. Not broken like worn but not real stiff like some new leather. Well the Car was delivered today. But it is coming back in for some Mods. So I will take some shots next week or so.

Guido!

Saw this the other day at Mini of the Mainline. It is one "sweet" combination. I would gain weight just sitting in it.

This really does look great, but it's quite an expensive option.

I like. Hope it will be available on whatever they end up calling the AWD, with BRG. I'd just keep checking to see if any melted onto me.

Any thoughts/opinions on the Hot Chocolate cloth/leather option?

I live in the desert southwest and was thinking the cloth might be more comfortable in the heat.

I've done a cursory search for it but is an AWD MINI a reality or just wishful thinking?

Apparently reality! Here's some details. Here's more.

At the Clubman launch party in Peabody, MA, the manager confirmed that MINI would be making an AWD vehicle, but it'll be a few years until it's out.
