Well it seems after lusting after one since 03', we're finally getting a MCS!
It's awaiting PDI at Long Beach MINI and hopefully will be able to pick it up today or Monday. Most likely Monday, since service is closed today.

My wife and I have always wanted a MCS,but couldn't justify "needing" one till now. She's getting a new car through her other business as a company car, and we needed a third car for write offs for our primary business. So the MINI was the natural choice!

I'm a long time car geek and newly motorcycle geek. I have a huge commitment issue when it comes to cars and have yet to keep anything longer than 3 years.
My current roster of toys (all modded) include a SL500, R350 (baby-mobile), a Ducati Paul Smart Replica, a Triumph Paul Smith Multi-Union T100, and the piece de resistance, my dream car that I recently acquired right before my 30th birthday, a 2007 Ferrari F430.
So 2 Italians, 2 Germans, and now 2 Brits!

I'm pretty active on 6speed and F-chat, so I hope to see some familiar guys around here. Excited to get to meet some of you guys and learn a whole bunch!

Merry Christmas everyone!

 

congrats and welcome!

 

Droooool.

Welcome! Enjoy the MCS - it's a WAAAAAY different car than the others in your stable... but serious fun, in different ways...

 

Thanks, guys!

well Mini LB pulled out all the stops and let me take delivery today!
Even though service was closed, they called a tech in just for us to PDI the car.

Love the car and can't wait to get the first mods away...stay tuned!

a merry christmas indeed.

 

Hey! Where are the pics!? : )
