Hey, Tim! Is there another HC/S Clubman in Portland?
I saw one out on Stevens Ave yesterday, coming through the intersection at Morrill's Corner. I was heading home.
If it was you, I am not a stalker!

Hello everyone, my JCW Clubman is currently somewhere in the North Atlantic aboard the DON JUAN! It is supposed to arrive in NYC on 11/28. This is my spec:
  • Hot Chocolate paint
  • Silver roof and mirrors
  • Silver C-pillars
  • Hot Chocolate cloth/leather
  • Anthracite headliner (standard on JCW)
  • Piano Black dash (English Oak is N/A on the JCW )
  • Cream White color line
  • Cold Weather Package
  • Xenon lights
  • MFSW
  • Rear fog
  • Comfort Access
As much as I have enjoyed Astro Black over the last couple years, HC is a beautiful color and will be a nice change I have a few ideas for exterior mods and maybe a drop on Eibach Pros

I'll look into it. There are a couple sign shops that will print whatever you want on anything..they specialize in magnetic signage and lettering for cars and trucks,

Nope, that wasn't me. My wife works with someone in Westbrook with a HC/B, but I don't know who else as an HC/S in Maine.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah and a Healthy New Year to everyone. And remember, when it snows we can really spot our MINI's in the white stuff.

Hi everyone, I'm still floating on cloud nine because for the first time in my life I've finally ordered the car of my dreams with exactly everything on it I want without having to compromise (thanks to all of the great posts and advice if read on this forum). My question is this, can I join the owners club now or once the car is delivered?

Welcome miniguy5! If it's on order, you're in the club.

Do you know when production begins?
