There's so many threads about bonnet temps that I guess that I need to include the picks from Phil Wicks and TGPR on all.
Here's the Flying Squirrel before she died:

No, not totalled. Back to MINI/BMW.
The Flying Squirrel was a 12/06 build; Arthur, King of the Britons is a 6/07 build --- runs much cooler. Arthur is also an AT; I got spooked away from the MT's by the early failure rates...

So it looks like if I order one to be built in April 08, there shouldn't be a 3-2 squeal issue.
