Eat, Sleep, Dream MINI! It makes the waiting a little more bearable!
WOW, you got it bad

Just think, once you get it ... IT becomes WORSE because then you get to look at it at 2 AM ... makes sure of no door dings ... etc

Chris-

WOW! That was fast for sure! Sounds like a great way to start a relationship with "Her Malesty".
I love the name! One of the better one's I might add. Good show.

She's Home!!!!

"Her Majesty" safely navigated me home & she's now sleeping in her new garage! As soon as the dealer was going over the nav, I jumped ahead and set it to GB voice! The only thing she doesn't have right now is her Union Jack colours on the roof, which are ordered. There was a mix up from Cooper Flags and they sent the dealer the black & White (grey) flag. So the dealer will be calling for her & she'll be made complete!

I'll take some pictures of her over the next couple of days, and get 'em set up here.

Boy, after driving that "whale in mud" Olds LSS for 6 years, it's a big change to the MCSa! I love it!

Thanks everyone!!

-Chris (and "Her Majesty")
