Soon to be Mini Owner

Hello! I am a soon to be Mini Owner! YAY

I finally test drove a Mini about two weeks ago and have been drooling over them ever since. My hubby has been a fan for a long time so he's all for me FINALLY embracing car love or is it lust? I'm going to my credit union to get my financing today during my lunch hour.

I swear all of you who are driving past me, and there aren't many of you, but those that are, are torturing me because my head snaps to watch your Minis pass. If I don't see at least one Mini during my day I now tend to pout a little bit. Fortunately there are three that park in the same garage I do. So I at least smile ever day as I pass them.

I just can't stand it any more and I am looking forward to becoming part of the Mini family! At this point I'm not sure if I (we) will be buying one on the lot, or ordering one. I'm not sure I can wait to have one built, but all good things come to those who wait, right?

If you can find one on the lot. Most of the new ones are purchased waiting for customers to pick them up. but you may get lucky.

And welcome to the disease of MINI Lust. One that has no cure (other than to buy one)

Some say that Obsessive Compulsive Mini Disorder only subsides while at full throttle, behind the wheel of a Mini. But does it really?

Waiting and tracking your Mini being built and traveling over are just the start of the fun. Welcome from North Carolina
