New owner as of 31JAN10...

My wife and I purchased a 2010 MC this last Sunday, it is Dark Silver w/ Black Roof and Bonnet Stripes, and I've been having too much fun driving it to stop by and post...

It's only been four days, but I'm confident in saying I know what I'll be driving for the rest of my life...

Pics incoming, when I find myself outside of it long enough to take them...

I don't think I've even seen a picture of a DS non-S, yet. (That color is available on justaCoopers, now, right?)

I like hearing this kind of stuff because I felt the dame way after an incredibly short time, too... Maybe before we even GOT it. Now, I want another one because my wife and I BOTH want to drive the MINI every day, but that's rather difficult. :D

Welcome aboard, spending 4 days straight in a MINI is understandable. Do find time for a few pictures whenever.!

Quick Pics...

Here are some photos of my new MINI...very few extras, but that's alright because it's still so much better than any other car I've had...I think the only thing I would have wanted different is the headliner, but since I'm impatient I can live with the light one...

Changes to come if I can decide what way to go. I think it's changed each day. Do I want to keep the chrome and get white lights, or black it out and go for the smoked lights...decisions...at least the first choice is easy, need to tint the windows...after my last few cars I feel exposed with out it...











...and now to go take it out for a ride before I pick my daughter up.
