Look at what my Dealer sent me =D





I must say, this cake was absolutely delicious!! Melted in my mouth with it's chocolately morsels of goodness...

The South Bay Mini Dealer was great, very nice and all. Also they weren't condenscending as me and my bf (young people) went to go purchase the car. I was wondering if anyone else got any other kinds of things from their dealer from buying?

about a week after we bought our MINI from Checkered Flag in VA Beach, we got a huge box of fancy foods, jellies, cookies, spreads and a Mini hat to top it off. I think part of it was that we drove 4 hours to go buy to the car!

I got free 2nd set of floor mats to go along with the $28,500+ invoice. But had to buy the British Flag valve stem covers...

Yummy yummy. I heard Jennifer of south bay is way cool, no need for more proof . Did you ask for it?
In one or two weeks I'm going to take my delivery from south bay as well, thanks much for the message, now I know what to expect. Even though my MA is not Jennifer, as least I can tell him where to steal one... piece of cake.

Nope, the cake was unexpected but welcomed . They also gave me free floor mats too (I sprung for the rubber S mats, just front and back tho no boot). Congrats on your new MINI coming in, I looved it.. you're driving all the way from up north?

BTW, drive up PCH back if you are. The view is amazing and the turns are awesome. I've had my MINI for ONE week and it has 2,000k miles..

Yup, that'll be a blast, well depends on how often the word 'break in' reminds me of something

I was just down in Malibu, took one of the canyon roads into the Santa Monica Mountains and had a blast of a drive. Some nice curves and incredible views. I was worried about my miles, not quite two months and almost 5,000 miles. I planned to keep the miles low, but just can stop driving

Nice drive, I tried to keep them down too but motoring is inevitable! Besides, these cars hold their value incredibly well, so you should be fine
