ok i know its november still but as christmas is coming up soon i thought id start a nice little topic
who here is getting mini parts or mini related items for christmas this year and what are you getting!
my dad has got me a full set of window rubbers and my girlfriend is getting me a new headliner! lucky me 
I can always count on Mini merchandise for christmas from my family
Every member of my family is giving me money towards my Mini Fund this Christmas! Next year cannot come any quicker!
all my family is giving me parts,
mum and dad:
new floors
wings
a panels
battery box
new boot floor
gran
passenger door
gran 2
drivers door
rest of fam is clubbing together to pay for half the re-spray
Shiney bits from the girlfriend and a handsfree kit too!
Money from everyone else for parts/insurance
haha that made me laugh, wish my grandparents were still around for mini presents lol
id like to see a mini door wrapped up and put under the christmas tree!
my family is all contributing to the mini fund but knowing my gran, she will get me clothes or a game voucher lol but i should probably convince them to get parts instead lol
girlfriends getting me some of the square mirrors cant see a thing with these round ones
we have plenty of ‘christmas present’ orders every year, but because the buyers arent used to purchasing mini / car products, most are unsure of what they are buying!!
we allways help to make sure they get the right parts, and we will let them use there son/daughter/husband/wifes user name to get the discounts
so remember to let anyone purchasing gifts to ask about the forum discounts
i suppose a mini wishlist would be a good idea? do you get them?
I don’t think my shelves will hold any more mini tat.
Might make a rule this year & warn rellies & friends that if tempted to purchase mini-related items, then please stick the cash in a charity tin instead.
wish i had shelves to hold mini tat, i have my wheels and steering wheel under the bed
Mrs Teapot is letting me buy Rocky a microfibre washing mitt & drying towel. He already has a dipping rearview mirror I expect he will want some red fluffy dice to hang on it, and some Cooper roundels to fill in the gaps on his rear quarters. Huey has also asked for a microfibre washing kit and assorted cleaning fluids and polishes.
> i suppose a mini wishlist would be a good idea? do you get them?

Just hope Santa thinks I’ve been a good boy this year…HoHoHo…
im not really counting on getting mini parts from my family members, i don’t ask them for anything for myself, i only ask that they send gifts for my kids
and i got my wife some pampered chef pots and pan set and other goodies that go along with the that set in order to use them
and then for myself, i just ordered a set of “fast road” mini tastic spring conversion kit today and its gonna hurt, but im gonna warp them and
put then under the tree
my early christmas present was an engine hoist it was either that or leave the 1.8 vvc engine in the back of dads picasso for 2 months aha. my mom wasnt too chuffed.
