There was a recall last year on my Clubman, that didn’t sound particularly serious, but was resolved during my service visit a few months ago. Today, I received notification of another recall – and this one seems a bit more serious and also very surprising that it’s taken such a long time for a software light control issue to be noticed!
I guess I’ll be needing to call Orlando MINI some time …
It’s nearly ten years since we bought 8002, originally our Florida vacation home – and eventually a very useful “staging home” when we moved from Massachusetts. Once we’d moved to our current home, we rented 8002 for a while but that ended badly with no payments and lots to repair, so a year ago we decided to sell – and it’s taken this long! We lost a lot (buying just before the big housing crash!), but 8002 was a great vacation home and made moving to Florida a lot easier.
So, last pictures of 8002, now sold …
Right next door to The Citrus Tower in Clermont is the President’s Hall Of Fame – another less popular perhaps struggling attraction, this one rather expensive to visit too. But we were having an enjoyable non-Disney day, so here’s lots more pictures!
Outside, there’s a “model” of Mount Rushmore, or at least something reminiscent; and a copy of Abraham Lincoln from his memorial too:
Indoors, past the eccentric gift store, are various amazingly detailed scale models of the White House – including one that represents the original construction:
Also a very large and detailed model of “today’s” White House, complete with many fully furnished rooms – photos make it look like we were spying!
