Congrats as well. Now stick some pics of yours in your gallery so we all can see.

I've been without a MINI for a couple years. My last was a plain jane go fast EB/W '02 S. Didn't even have cruise! I believe it's build date was May '02. I really think the '06 was the best of the "1st Generation".

I like the cheese grater in the scoop. I took a mourning dove hit in there once. That cheese grater would have minced him good making cleanup an easy hose him out job.

Now as for the rear wiper delete, is that so you don't have to see tailgaters? Block em out with a dirty window FTW!

Very nice looking MCS. I love those tan/black seats.

Thanks Chuck. The interior is the Cordoba Beige leather seats and trim. As for the rear wiper delete, I never use it and it just gets in the way when washing. So it's gone. My Home Depot Gutter Guard (cheese grater) does a fair country job of keeping bugs and stones out of the IC.

Looking good, and she has a nice shine. Great choice in colour also, but then I may be a bit biased.
