Tic tock to y'all!!!

 

Woo hoo! First pict is in my gallery (taken with my crummy phone for now). It rained big time when I left, so I already have to clean it. Translation, better pictures later

I'm an official club member now!

 

Congrats. Looks good. I'm still waiting.

 

kbleicher, congratulations but - yes, you do need to take more photos! The BRG/BRG combination is really nice ...if I'd seen one in real life, I might well have gone that route, too.

 

Thanks thanks thanks! I love it! I just posted another pict in my gallery. I already need to clean it; I had rain today and yesterday, so I'll post more once it looks better....

 

The one titled "First pic" -- aw, look at you trying to be cool and collected about it! You KNOW you just want to jump around, screaming & giggling like a kid!

 

Ah, yes, kb - welcome to the world of darker colored cars...they do, indeed, show the stuff of life more...but hey, an MINI that's not driven is a very sad MINI indeed.

Honestly, I've washed this MINI more in the first month plus than I have ever washed any other car. Buy yourself some Meguiars Quick Detailer.

 

So here's a goofy video of me picking up my BRG Clubman last week. Rough edit, so no awards coming our way:

I also put some more pictures of it on my site (again, dirty, but you get the feel):

very good taste terry. the hot choc and the oak look great.

 

TerryF,
I saw a picture today at Vista Mini. It really is beautiful. I really like the interior. If you see comeone in a Chili Red/ Black waving and flashing his lights, well, that would be me.
Once again Good Luck and Happy Motoring,

Larry

 

Terry - your photos continue to make me swoon! Fantastic combination!

 

Hey! I just stumbled across this thread. I just got my VIN in the last day or so. I'm hoping to have my BRG/BLK/BLK JCW by the end of July. Sounds like I'm the only JCW member here so far. OH......this is too exciting! YAHOO!!!!

 

I'm sorry, but cutting off the belt line trim at the c-pillar just looks nasty and cheap. How hard/$ would it have been to wrap it around the rear?!

 

That's the primary reason I didn't get the Exterior Chrome option.

 

Thanks.

Thanks, Larry. I'll be looking for you.

Thank you, Otra!

It's not quite the end of the world for me. I think the positives of the exterior chrome outweigh this negative.

 

Just put up a second gallery.. This one after a washing...

Belt line has Nothing to do with the Chrome pkg...Nasty and cheap is a matter of opinion...I think looks elegant and stylish...

 

"I think it looks elegant and stylish..." Thank you, diablito, as do I!

 

Now that I have it back - dealer had it for 3 days to install roof stripes - I thought I would finally post some pictures.

 

Very nice silver stripes.

 

nice nico looks great

 

YEP, very nice BRG/SIL STRIPES

 

I'm official now. I just need to takes some pics (of I got it dusty on the first day).

 

Well get to it and post 'em!
