I could be wrong, but I believe he's asking that MINI deliver ("please del!") the new Neural Velocity Monitor (nvm) that's on the current concept MINIs at car shows. And I agree!

NVM is integrated with the NAV system and uses the wireless CA (comfort access) circuit to detect how fast your brain feels you are going versus actual road speed as determined by the VDU (velocity display unit - or "speedo" to us regular folks), with a calibration correction supplied by the GPS. When the delta (difference) between the NVM and VDU reach a trigger point, an audible tone alerts the driver that a potentially dangerous condition is imminent. Should the delta exceed a programmable threshold, the MFSW delivers an ESD (electrostatic discharge) to alert even a distracted driver of the problem.

It's the future and it's here today, if only MINI would include it in production builds!

No worries if you ordered the JCW IBRP option. Involuntary Bladder Release Pad - race proven.

I know I've seen "Rocky Horror Picture Show" one too many times when it's the first thing I thought of when I saw your post...

Actually, I think you can find more information on this over in the "accessory mistakes" thread.
