I live in Harpers Ferry WV, but the car came from Sterling MINI, so it had to get a VA inspection to get a Temp Tag... that will be gone and the WV one will be in its place in a few weeks.

Bubble and squeak is a dish in the British islands that uses left over veggies, fired up in a pan. When I was over there I fell in love with it at breakfast.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_and_squeak

ALSO I thought it was a great name of a MINI given the bubbles from the tailpipe, and squeaks from everything else (just saying). But mainly because when I think UK, b&s is what I remember the most.

Nice car, VERY NICE!

A couple of questions for you convertible owners....

Are they "noisy" when driving? Also, in winter, are they cold inside?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike, just traded an '06 S convert for a '12 S Clubbie. The convert was really noisy. Didn't really know how noisy until I drove the Clubbie for a couple of days. It was actually quite warm . . . when I let it be warm. I liked riding, in the winter, with the sunroof feature open and the heated seats on.
