Picked her up last night!
Too bad it was nasty and snowing so I did not get to drive hardly at all.
She is so beautiful the Hot Chocolate paint and Hot Chocolate leather looks so good together. Having had a 02 Cooper for almost eight years it was amazing how different the Clubman feels.
Hope the roads clear up today so I can put at least a few miles on her and I can't wait to look at her in the day light.

Picked up the Camden late today and boy is it awesome. Made the wife cry!
Hey ML, Walked into the showroom and there was a nice OB was looking sweet. Thats a cool color!
Also was a Hot Chocolate regular MINI which looked great too.
Try to get some pics in tomorrow. I need to get the road grime off from our 1 1/2 hour drive home. I'm hoping to get it clayed and waxed tomorrow also and get the snows on it. I just spent 3 hours playing with the NAV, stereo and phone setup. Man that Nav is nice. We are glad we got it after our 1st impressions of it.
Hey Erik, your MA said you were in to get yours so we will need pics soon and to hear how you like it!

Anyway, saw three other Minis up there. Chile Red, Pepper White <-- (I talked to the owner) and a 2002 Yellow. I also spoke with the owner of the Yellow Cooper for a few minutes, had had seen my car and pulled up right next to it. Nice gentleman, told he had 130,000 miles on her and never had an engine problem.

10 AM, Saturday March 6th. Crown MINI of Richmond. Something tells me I won't be sleeping the night of the 5th. I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve!
Thanks for the pics and sorry for the snow, guys. I keep telling myself that there is no way we will get snow in VA after March 6. Right?
Dogdal: Do you have the black and white seats in the Camden? I really thought they were slick when I was looking at the different options.

"My wife and I went up to the Saucon Valley shops yesterday. That was a nice drive up route 309 until we hit the construction in Coopersburg. Wow is that town named after a Mini?

Yeah we always see at least one MINI when shopping up there. Oh and by the way check your air pressure in your tires. Ours was 49lbs in every tire. But thats the only thing I found wrong.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone could give me the average time it takes for the MINIs to be loaded on to the ships after production? I called ASK-MINI and the automated option said that my MINI's production was complete and is awaiting transport.
The wait is killing me!
Thanks for any help

Hope this helps

Did your car come over on the Don Carlos? I assume that the storm that hit the NYC area last Thursday/Friday slowed down being able to truck them to their final dealerships. They may have a logjam of MINIs that needs to get out.
My MA has promised this Saturday for me, which will make a nice, even six weeks from order date to pickup date. Since some of you have been waiting much, much longer, I can't complain.
