Learning about my new Car
My first MINI was a R53 JCW. I loved that car.
My second MINI was an R55. I kind of loved that car, but I flipped it, slid through a drainage ditch, and was stopped by a tree.
After that, I went to a Volkswagen GTI. It was a good car -- no two ways about it. It was not a MINI.
I have since purchased a 2011 R56. I don't have it yet.
It has a lot of packages, but all of them have modest differences. It has the premium package, the cold weather package, and the sport package.
The car is used, and I am not purchasingit from a MINI dealership. There are options like a cream leather interior and matching dash that show the original buyer made decisions matching what they want instead of buying a car off of the lot.
What are the current VIN decoders that I could use to find the options selected by the original buyer (and there has only been one buyer)?
