Hi Everyone!

I am going to pick up my new 06 MCS RG/S (Maxwell) on Friday the 20th. I am very excited for my first Mini. Have always wanted one but the weather has discouraged me. Now I am autocrossing in the summer and figure it's better to enoy your car for most of the year instead of purchase for a few days in the winter.
I'll post pictures as soon as I get him.

Thanks for a great forum.

MM

Greetings and Welcome to the NAM family! Maxwell... such a nice British moniker (any reference to the Maxwell in the Beatles song - Maxwell's Silver Hammer? seeing as Max is RG/S). I'm sure you and Max will have a great time together! Motor on!

My husband thought up the name and later I found out that, yes, it is in reference to the Beatles song. Cute, huh?

Max will definitely be a proper British boy. Motoring on...Hoping to put some beatings down on the auto cross courses next season.

Hi Scott,
I think I'm right down the street from you. I've seen your EB MINI parked on Awbrey. I'll wave next time I see you.
Thanks for the invite, I will check out the site. Excited to see so many MINIs in Bend.
Thanks.
MM
