Hello all,
I pick it up tomorrow morning to finally be able to drive it around a bit, but I traded in my '06 S for a '10 Clubman S! How do I join the group?
:D
Monkey!
if these don't show.... the album is here:

Clay FTW.
I've got stripes, and it's not clear that it's a good idea to clay those. The installer used crap material the first (two) times, and they discolored both times. The third set has held up better, and I studiously didn't clay them this year. Cleaning compounds (Meguiars) don't do well either.
But, in the spirit of the thread, this color really stands out with a little TLC.

Old Mini, fresh pics
Greetings fellow H.C. fans.
I've posted mine before, but approaching her 7th birthday I will freshen up my record (as I did in the general Clubman forum too, so pardon the duplication, but the Hot Chocolate forum is my real home here.)
So here's my Mini's face nowadays, with the needed and functional hood pins, so to not have to do the latch, and the Euro plate with the famous numbers (recognize them?)
And here's the H.C. interior:
Here's the dog territory (I miss my back seats sometimes!)
An alert viewer may note that the photos post date the posting itself. I had to reload the photos for some reason and used slightly different ones :-)
Seven years behind me and Mini and hopefully, seven or more ahead of us. My other thread is about keeping my Clubman 'Forever'

Glad I found all of you, we just got a 2010 a hot chocolate/silver with a Gravity Leather Tuscan Beige interior with walnut wood trim. the interior is really unique. I will post photos in a few weeks when we get our new license plates: R Clubby. The vintage California plates should look great on the Hot Choco.

Accents on Hot Chocolate
My favorite striping for the past year has been copper on the hot chocolate.
Mine came with black but after seven years a little change is nice. The copper goes well with the gold flakes in the paint.
I alternate chrome mirror caps + black summer wheels (April through October) with black mirror caps + silver wheels with snow tires.
Comments welcome.

I need to tweak the lighting. The beige color washed out of the leather.
Here's an interior shot I snapped off, now need to actually plan some shots.
