Brand Spankin' New

Hey Now! I got my new 07' Mini Cooper S this 4th of July, basically celebrated the 4th with a bang. It's Pepper White with a Black roof and black bonnet stripes, Premium and Sports Package. I was going to get Sirius Radio as well but I didn't want to wait, I WANTED MY CAR NOW!!! Looking forward to chatting it up with everybody!

Has anybody sat down and actually read the manual? I'm having a hard time doing so.

Bye for now
_lawrence

You have been assimilated.



Not only worked my way through the manual, but I'm awaiting delivery of the Bentley Shop Repair Manual so I can work my way through that!

Congrats on your new arrival!!!

Sounds like a beauty!!!

I'm still in waiting, but can't wait to join the fun soon.

Get some pics posted soon. I need eye candy to hold me over. I'm sure the dealership is tired of my buzz bys.

Sounds great! Good color combo. I found the manual to be a rather quick and easy read, besides, what else do I have to do while I wait for my car.

If I had known that we actually give our MINI's nicknames (I didn't give my old car a nickname) I would have gotten a different color scheme, Metallic Blue with a white top and stripes and called it "Blue Iris"

That's me picking the MINI up!

Aloha and welcome to NAM.

Great to hear from you.
