The Arrival

I finally took delivery today.

Pictures in the gallery or here: http://www.mpiii.com/mini.php

I was leaning towards the name Lilly, but I think it's too feminine, need something more manly.

Feels good to finally have it home in the driveway.

Now time to break it in.

Congrats! That's exciting news! I was going to suggest Lola, close to Lilly, but "she walks like a woman and talks like a man oh my Lola" brings in a bit of masculinity! Sgt. Pepper IS perfect for a PW MINI!

Congrats on your delivery!!!

Your pics look like you'll be having much fun in a rather sharp looking car.

Enjoy a future of safe and happy motoring.

Thank goodness you weren't anywhere near the Big House. You might have crashed on the way home.
