Hello all!

I just wanted to introduce myself. I have been lurking in the forum for the past week and have found this place to be a tremendous wealth of information . We have a new R56 (our first Mini) for my wife's daily driver to be delivered this week as follows:

'07 MCSa, CR/W + white bonnet stripes, red leather/cloth/Piano black, factory aero kit w/painted arches, Convenience, Premium, Sport w/web spoke 17's, Sport suspension, Nav, IPod kit, 10 speaker stereo, alarm, JCW strut brace, InvisiShield, chrome tips, white turn signals, rear fogs, black rubber mats, inside mirror Union Jack cap.

I'll post photos when we get the car, hopefully by 05/25. We already joined SCMM and look forward to meeting everyone at the 06/02 breakfast!

Velcome, and sweet Chili Red! Have fun, and remember, it's Motoring, not driving. Driving is what you do from point A to point B. Motoring is enjoying the drive between the two!
