After much consideration I've decided on #53. And the good news is that I AM picking up my new baby Lambchops (my MCC) on Wed. 2/1 at Hank Aaron MBW/MINI , I can hardly stand the wait!
Almost went with O2 Blue because I learned to drive manual in a kind of Robin's Egg blue (don't know the official name) mid-'60s Austin Mini. Bunny hopping across a store parking lot. (Oh the toll on the 16-yr.old ego...)
But opted for Pepper White with black top (wife insisted on sunroof) and sport stripes for the flourish. Glad for it now.
Went for the factory tour in Oxford a couple of weeks ago (way worth it, but book 3 months in advance!) and the guide mentioned that PW is the most popular colour in Canada.
Must be the national pre-occupation with snowfall.
Salt and Pepper, Congrats! Hope to see you motoring. Which Ipod adaptor are you getting? There is a new one supposed to be out which should show the songs on the HU.

I got the factory ipod adaptor and it still does not display the songs, etc. which is disappointing, but I'm still loving it. I assume it's a 2006, but don't know for sure. I also noticed that when I have "random play" selected, shut off the car and return, it starts where I left off, but I have to select the "random" button again, which is a little annoying, but I'll live with it.
Lovin' driving Lambchops, of course, no matter what.
Number 6 please. Fiance's Pw/B MINI is on its way.
Hey Salt and Pepper, is your MINI on the Patriot as well? I ordered hers from Hank Aaron MINI as well and they said it would be here early Feb. It would be great if we could get it by next weekend!

No, she was on the Freedom and unloaded in Chas. this past Sun. (22). The OL said she would be deliverd on the 28th, so I called my MA and was told to expect to pick her up on 2/1, but then got a call yesterday (Wed.) and was told she had just been unloaded at Hank's and I could get her tomorrow so Ill be there Friday afternoon to sign the adoption papers and take her home!!!! Now my next hard decision will be the vanity plate....
I have created a PW/B Mini Cooper Frappr, if everyone wants, you can add yourself [ here ]. I have put my # in the shoutout, you can do the same, so we know where the numbers go.
I'm not sure if they are a NAM member, but I just noticed a new PW/B MCS yesterday on my drive home. Still had it's Princeton MINI plates and temp registration on the window. It was in Hopewell, NJ. If I am correct, the owner(s) previously had a BRG/W MC which they had since early 2003.

Today while I was out motoring just in the local area, I saw 2 PW/B MINI's: 1 MC and 1 MCS! Nice to see that there are plenty of others that have good taste out here.
, I can hardly stand the wait!
