Not if it's a January build.

Thabks for the comments.

That's right. I think LCI production doesn't start until mid March.

Hello. Sorry to ask but can someone remind me what LCI stands for in these model range updates?

Car and spec looks great!

LCI stands for Life Cycle Impulse. Pretty way of saying facelift.

Looks great op! We bought a new Cooper S in late 2015 for my other half but sadly had to sell it 18 mths on when she scored a promotion and got a company car. I still think it’s one of the quickest hot hatches on B roads, just because of the torque from the 2.0T engine and the agility it offers thanks to the front end grip.

Only spec tip I’d offer is that when we tried to sell privately, we kept getting asked if it had built in sat nav. We hadn’t spec’d it (we used a high end Tomtom and our phones) but we could have sold it four times over if it had sat nav fitted. HK is a good one though!

Can you still spec the Chilli Pack on these 7’s?

Enjoy it and lots of pics when it arrives please!

If funds allow I'd add on the LED headlights, biggest regret I have with the spec on mine frown

The halogens are rubbish, the LEDs finish the car much better IMO.

Yes, we didnt want to go wholly mad on the options given this is really just a second car.

We're pleased with the combination we went for and it works for us. beer
