Official Mayfair Owners Club
Everybody keeps saying, “Somebody should make a Mayfair group,” so here we go.
I must admit that at the time of the creation of this group, I am not an official Mayfair owner. I am in the Mini Purgatory of knowing my Mayfair MCS is out on a dock in Southampton waiting for a ship to bring him to his new home in the mountainous, twistie-filled roads of SW Virginia. Hopefully the wait will be over near the start of March
My specs: 2010 MCS, PW/B, Mayfair package (obviously), Convenience, Cold Weather, Auto AC, Satellite, H/K, Anthracite Headliner, Rear fogs, Invisashield clear bra, chrome scoop. No sunroof, though – I was floored by the amount of noise they let in during test drives
Anyway, we all know that our Mayfairs are special – from those toffee bonnet stripes to the special Mayfair “bling” items that set us apart. I especially like the subtle turquoise green stitching in the toffee leather seats. It sounds like it would stick out like a sore thumb, but actually goes beautifully with the rest of the design of the cabin.
So, be it a Hot Chocolate, Pepper White or the elusive Midnight Black Mayfair, this is the place to discuss why your ride is the best on the road (or at least in your garage).

Hello,
I ordered my 2010 Mayfair Mini on Feb. 20th and I can't wait to get her. I've named her Eleanor. She's pepper white with toffee bonnet stripes and even though I've never seen this color combination in person, I know she will be beautiful. Can anyone tell me how long it will take? I'm glad I found this website.

Thanks everyone. Thom228, I LOVE these pictures. Did you have to pay extra for the chrome scoop? I don't remember it being a part of my upgrades. Only thing different is my roof is pepper white (same as the body). I did include rear fog lights for the exterior. Can't wait to see her! The color scheme is classy & sassy with an attitude! She has completed production, so I guess the next step is to board the boat to cross the big pond? I appreciate the pictures, they are better than the one you build on the website!

Since it was already going to be "chromed up" from the Mayfair package, I wanted a chrome scoop as well. When we were going through the dance of what I was willing to pay for and what I wasn't, I wanted the scoop thrown in for free. I got everything I asked for, so I was pretty happy about it.
Your Mayfair will come with rally lights, but horrible white covers on them. If you would like a little extra chrome, a quick Google of "chrome mini cooper rally light covers" will direct you to minimani.com. I have dropped the hint to my better half that they would make a very nice birthday present for somebody who just purchased a new MINI.

Thanks for the compliments! All MINIs look great, but there's always something special about the one that lives in your garage. Once yours comes in, you'll really notice how the toffee on the stripes flows into the interior leather. It's a very unique, handsome color combo.

As to the driving light covers...my advice would be check your state regulations...you may be allowed 4 forward facing lights and not be required to keep them covered. In which case I would leave the covers off like I do.

Really? I wouldn't think the rally lights would have changed size from one model to the next. Well somebody needs to make some chrome ones, beause those white covers ruin the look on mine. I would rather he go naked than wear them.
