I detailed him Sunday morning and haven't driven him since so he's still nestled away in the garage - all clean and shiny

Can anyone tell me how I can easily get to my saved presets for Sirius using my little mouse joystick thingie? It seems it should be easy but I can't find them without taking 3-4 steps??

Home->Radio

That takes you to the last menu you were on the last time you were in Radio. If you don't see "Presets" in the list of options, back up (pushing left on the joystick).

+1, I still need to setup my year of free Satellite radio. The menu system on the Mini Connected is a bit confusing. I had to spend half the day (at least it seemed that long but was probably more like a couple of hours) trying to get an understanding of how to have my phone connected while listening to my wifes phone (or vice-versa) via bluetooth.

Michelin Energy Savers?

Just got my Justa on Friday...I'm still trying to wipe the silly grin off of my face when I'm driving, what a shocker, huh? Anyway, I noticed that I did NOT get the standard issue Continental tires that most of the cars with 15" wheels get, I got Michelin's. Anyone else get these on their Justa? So far, so good, I'm just curious if anyone else had noticed what they got on their car. VERY happy that I didn't get the run-flats!

What you did is get lucky. I wish I had the Michelin's. I do have to ask though, do you have a spare?

Thanks for the invite, go ahead rub my nose in how you have all those MINIStang friends to play with. No really, thanks for the invite.
There used to be a MINI club close to me but they seem to have disbanded.

One day we'll all meet up and what a party that would be. We could all mourn Hawkling together!

Time to start shopping for another one (or maybe hawking ). Funny, I was talking with a friend of mine the other night and his girlfriend is ordering a countryman and he now wants a clubman because he says he already predicts he won't get to drive the countryman because his girlfriend would always have it

I hope all my motoring buddies had a good weekend. Winston is spotless (bite your tongue pumpkinhead lol) and tucked away in the garage. He has nearly 700 miles on him and I heard him fart for the first time yesterday
