Replying to: coupah (Jul 22, 2008 10:53 am) some of the roof graphics help block the sun and still keep the car looking cool too. Replies to this message: bodble2 (Jul 22, 2008 7:43 pm)

Replying to: rik4 (Jul 22, 2008 6:33 pm) How? (I mean the part about blocking the sun. The looking cool part I get.)

you have your choice on roof grahphics. you can get perforated which allows some sun in or non perforated. when you order the graphic they will ask you which you want. Replies to this message: bodble2 (Jul 24, 2008 9:54 pm)

Replying to: rik4 (Jul 24, 2008 5:08 pm) You mean they apply the graphics right over the moonroof? I see. I guess that's the way it has to be, or else it wouldn't be much of a graphics!

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Jun 05, 2008 1:25 pm) I currently own a 2008 Clubman S and was looking at a used 2006 Mini Cooper S with auto transmission. Love the car, color and price but what does anyone know about issues with 2006 models and the auto transmission? My research indicates most of the problems were pre 2004 and also the CVT autos.

Replying to: rtboon (Aug 17, 2008 6:17 am) I can't remember if a 2006 had a CVT or not. If it did, I wouldn't buy it personally. I remember driving a "new" (back when) MINI with the new paddles shifting automatic and I liked that one, but I think that was 2007. Just not sure of when the transition occurred. I don't like CVTs in any car I've ever driven (Caliber, Prius, Mini, Audi etc). They drive me nuts and they're noisy.

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Aug 17, 2008 7:08 am) I don't think any of the -S- models ever came with the CVT.. just the base Cooper... Pretty sure that all of the -S- autos are 5- or 6-speed automatics.. regards, kyfdx visiting host Replies to this message: bodble2 (Aug 17, 2008 9:52 am)
