Just signed up to the forum so thought I would say Hello!
I have a 2000 (w reg) Mini mpi, which I assume is a Seven, but does not actually say so on the V5, but does have all the Seven features.
Not sure if you have been in contact with me before regarding your car, but if you send me the reg & chassis number (see 'register my car' on the website), I'll be able to tell you if its a seven or a pre-classic range 'standard', which are similar to a seven but without the red/cream interior.
