Albuquerque To New Jersey

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Got my MCC a few weeks ago. Lightning Blue Chrome roll bar looks beautiful.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]The Mini now known as “Sandy” had 26 miles in it when I drove off the lot less than a month ago. Sandy now has 4025 miles on her. Sandy is the best car I’ve ever driven. Never have I owned a sport coupe that handled just like a go cart on the interstate at 70 to yep yep yep 135 mph and that was 135 handling like a dream on a bumpy a** road in Ohio somewhere after break in period. I drove through all the tornados and stuff they were having in the mid west and with the fog lights it was so easy to see they were certainly a blessing to have. Lightning was flashing and at the exact same time we were hearing the thunder drove right through huge hail storms and gnarly wind like it was a light spring rain. Now I’m in New Jersey cruising it along the shore with my kid. So very awesome having the top down almost every day. The top goes up at 89 degrees and over or 50 degrees and under. Or when it rains. Drove it to Manhattan last week. It was a really nice day not to hot, Top down (easy to yell at the cab drivers) my 10 year old son had a blast….Also Top down means almost Zero blind spots. Gotta Love it. It’s the perfect city car. Easy to park… (back up beeper is great when you cant quite see the front grill of the Bentley behind you) SO my roof rattles on the rear passenger side when in sunroof mode. And my top squeaks when I raise and lower it sometimes. Not always. Every now and then I hear a whistle sound come out of my clutch. That started about 3000 miles or so. Usually when it’s cold. And not very often. The clutch slipped the other day whilst making a left hand turn when I had to kinda go really quickly. Seamed the the RPM’s went really high really fast but the car didn’t move all to quick, then it cought up with itself. Anyone hade similar sounding acting sorta things of the like?????[/SIZE][/FONT]
