Those OBs look so naked without stripes Are they repos? That would be sad
Wannabe - I hope your Mini has arrived safely to its new home. Looking forward to seeing pics of it with snow on the bonnet!
I'm jealous of you all having white Christmases, but then I think of cabin fever, driving in it, etc. and I'm not so jealous any more. Whatever......wishing you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, whatever floats your boat.

Ya' know, Linda, I gotta agree with you! I had stripes on order until just before it went into production. Got an idea for a roof graphic that wouldn't go well with stripes. Still haven't made my mind up for sure on it yet, so for the time being, mine's naked too.
wannab & Blainstang, where's those MINIs?? The anticipation is slowly and excruciatingly killing me! I'm overjoyed for you two, but so far there's no pictures of your new babies. What's keeping you?? Hope it's just that you've been having too much fun.
I'm with Linda---Oh joyous holidays to all here on the OB thread! Right now, we've got rain on top of snow (can you say flood?) and predictions for wind gusts up to 60 mph. I think I'd rather just have the snow! White Christmas? We'll see...

Well ironically, just after I posted to this thread, we lost power for a few hours. Wind is supposed to die down in the early morning; remains to be seen whether the power stays on from here on out (although I guess another event is lining up for Saturday night).
Anyway, Linda, I'm in far-western NY, south of Buffalo. We've had a wild ride so far this winter but I really can't complain. At least we didn't get the ice storm / extended power outage that New England got a couple weeks ago...

Good for you, Ted. Enjoyed the video.
Hey, Annasassy, I moved here from Austin TX 10 years ago and I'm quite familiar with the ups and downs of temps this time of year after 31 years of living there (I moved there from NYC-quite a culture shock in 1967!). Enjoy the shorts weather while you have it.
Merry Christmas everyone!

Hey all'y'all! I am
She arrived Tuesday evening, a bit later than expected due to traffic getting out of Boston, but I still took her for a little spin.
I drove her down to MA Christmas Eve, so I've put about 300 more miles on her. I love, love, love driving again!
What a fun little car!
I had time enough to start to learn the various controls and gadgets, but still have some reading to do.
She is a little dirty due to melting snow and spray from the highway, but I'm going to try to get to a quickie spray wash today and clean her up for some photos.
I also ordered a PoochStyle full mat for the back for my Baxter. When I got the car I realized a kennel that would be big enough to be comfortable for him simply will not fit, so this is my next choice. I'm going to keep looking for some sort of container that will keep him more confined, though.

It SHOULD be available for delivery by Monday, however.
Be sure I will post plenty of pictures as soon as it arrives

And I am looking for something to protect our MINI from our new Motoring companion (which we picked up on Christmas Eve):
Meet "Harley", our 9-week-old Great Dane

WOW, I leave for a day and look what happens! All I can do is smile as I read each of these recent posts!
Congratulations wannab AND Blainestang (AND Harley--Ted approves!) !
Great cars, great dogs, great fun
And anna, I think based on Romo's pics, I vote for the black wheels too. How about some like these: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ond-mini.html?
