This proves my point - we should have as many Clubmans as we want. I love the DS/B and HC/B combo. there are so many cool combos - SS/S is cool too. ephotodfw, your Clubman is sweet!

I have finally gotten around to taking a few more pics. I uploaded them to my gallery here and to the Clubman pool on Flickr.

Love Darth. Love the name, love the car, love the gallery. What are the BMW part numbers for the coffee maker and toothbrush heads? Clearly a couple of microfiber towels and a beer are not going to be enough for me to keep up in the OCD detailing sweepstakes.

I have used her smilies for several years online. I actually pay for the "Millan Extras" because they are totally hilarious.

Darth Small rocks and what awesome photos. The one with him peaking out the white building is sharp! I'm so excited as my exterior color scheme is the same as yours, wish I could do the extra for the driving lights since they look great.

DeK nice MINI's! Including the yellow one, looks like you're a three MINI family, congratulations!!

Thank you both for the photos!

Thanks, Coopdy!

You will love-love the DS/B combo. I stare at D.S. every time I go outside; when I park somewhere, I have to turn around and get a few extra glances before I walk away. It's pretty sickening, lol.

I see in your sig you changed your order. What did you change?

From a NFR Clubman to the DS Clubman S. Why can't I have both?

I know!

If NFR would have been an option for the S, my color decision would have been a little more difficult. I love that color!

Looking real good DeK!!! I like the little yellow one at the back of the garage too!

Just curious what you will use for winter tires on your Pace wheels? I will also be using my Pace wheels for winter rims. Will you stick with Pirelli for your winter tire choice, or do you have more choices in Europe? We seem quite limited here if we stick with the OEM sizing.

I hear there is a new Pirelli Sottozero Serie II coming out, but have not been able to find out if they will be available in th 205/45R17 size or not.
