When it’s 50 degrees outside, dry and sunny, why not! Of course, you have to do twice as much washing when you own two MINIs – And here’s a surprising admission: I think this is the first time I’ve personally washed GPMINI – up to now it’s been washed by people during MTTS, or washed at MINI of Peabody, or “spa” detailed …
Now I’m ready for tomorrows MINI meet … I wonder which car I’ll take 😉
OK so today was in the 50s(!) but two mornings ago, it wasn’t so warm … it was downright frosty!
Maybe I should stop posting frost pictures now? 😉
Long time MINI owner, friend and ruler of MINIsOnTop driving directions, Richard decided to grab one of the last of the “first gen” MINIs, before the ’07 / turbo version shows up … he went from Dark Silver to Space Blue, and spec’ed his new MINI really nicely with almost everything: Premium, Sports & Cold Weather packs, and the wonderful English Leather seats.
Richard had the roof rack fittings added to the new car (he still has the roof rack from the old MINI) – it’s a bit surprising to see drills being applied to a brand new MINI even before the keys have been handed over!
Richard’s posted his first impressions over on MINI2:
The feel of the car relative to the ’03 is very noticeably better. No squeaks or rattles (at least not yet), the improved gearing is great, and there are plenty of small changes that are generally positive. I’m even starting to get used to looking for the clock in the right place. And the leather seats do not disappoint!
Great to hang out with you Richard – enjoy the new MINI 🙂
