So...FYI on winter-ability of any MINI. We got a winter storm with about 10 inches of snow over the last 3 days. Cars are getting stuck everywhere, and Bubbles and I (remember good winter tires) are flying around everything, and if the car doesn't "sled" overtop of the big snowdrifts, it cuts right thru them. Very impressive with snow bounding over top of the roof of the car as you smash through yet another snow drift. This car is the best winter vehicle I've ever owned....For those in the south, you need to get your winter tires and head on up!

Hey Radio....I only have 2 Clubbies on record poking their heads in here, you're the 3rd! But they have black or silver rooves. However, there are 2 MINIs with a NFR roof, and you should be able to find their galleries: they are plasmodesmata and AlabamaNightfire.....see what you can find.
For the database, I still the need the following for your entry: name of your MINI, are there any bonnet stripes and what color, and which transmission.
I think that will be an amazing looking MINI...I particularly like the beige interior & Oak....very classy.
When you get your MINI, post a pick here, and CJ will give you a little surprise...you will become a "vested" member in our club...and will then have bragging rights about the "delivery"....it's down-right painful!

I won't have a name for him till I sit in him, (it's a connection thing, come on you know what I mean) =)
EDIT: just got my production week. 19!!!!! ARGH! not till May 3rd!!!
So no name yet,
Bonnet stripes, yes, but dealer installed.. I was going white, but I'm thinking black will be best. I don't know why you can't get black factory stripes w/o black roof. seems silly.
and steptronic trans.

Thanks Radio...I've entered "NYN'd" (not yet named), but I think we all know the naming convention....it'll come to you when you see it.
ROO...say it ain't so. I've had the entire front end caved in...but now we're up and running fine. It's difficult to match NFR paint...to keep an eye on that!
ALL: I found the newer "The Italian Job" DVD today for $5....guess what I'm doing tonight!
