Gratitude

Now that my roadster is in sight, I want to thank all of you enthusiasts who have helped and inspired me over this past year.( special shout out to: Spiney, Zulu, II Kings, Blue Toy, Hemi, Gil, Rev, Colea, Audiophile, mb) I participated on the BMW One Addicts forum while researching and ordering my present 135i. Once I got the car, though , I essentially stopped posting... I'm not going to let that happen again... For many reasons : I feel bonded with the group , sort of a band of brothers and sisters; and, most of you are very experienced with Minis/ roadsters; I am not.... Will undoubtedly need your help with my new baby... It's enjoyable...
Thanks Again,
John (aka: JoNack)
Will try to post photos of Matilda when she arrives home!

I look forward to the pictures. You will love the car and the community. The waiting is hard but well worth it.

You're more than welcome. These cars are so great that it would be criminal not to share! Looking forward to the pictures.

Great post JoNack, If it's one thing about MINI owners it's their strange desire to be overly friendly to other MINI owners. Everyone laughs at me when I say i'm part of a club for MINI owners. We're weird what can I say, but at least it's a good weird.

Hey John,

My pleasure, I can't wait to see your new machine.

I agree, it's really nice to swap stories, mods and pictures with a bunch of great folks enjoying their roadsters.

Andy

What a nice message John, thanks for sharing! We are looking forward to seeing the newest R59 here. Be prepared for absolutely brilliant handling on twisty roads and lots of thumbs up and questions at stop lights.
