OMG!!! I'm getting a CLUBMAN!!!

Hi Everybody!!!!!!! I am totally going to be part of the cool crowd now!!!! I just ordered a 08' Mini Clubman yesterday!!!!!!!!!!! She is Hot Chocolate with Leather Lounge Seats (totally hot), the premium package, Xenon's and some other coolies!!!! I so cannot wait!! She's due to come home next month!!! How am I going to make it?

"Toffee", which is her name already is already part of a "Mini Family"! My husband (Canvasmonkey) has a 07' R56 MCS, Chili Red which also is totally awesome!! He just got a tint job yesterday for his mini, which I am contemplating myself!!

I never thought that I'd personally get a MINI ... until the day that I laid my eyes on the Clubman at the Frankfurt Car show last year ... OMG, I thought to myself ... "I HAVE TO HAVE THAT"!!!!!!

Well ... all you CLUBMAN lovers out there ... especially the "HOT CHOCOLATE LOVERS" ... drop me some lines!!!!!!!!!

Jacqueline

It's too late for you now.

You have been assimilated.

Congratulations!!! Hope you have some sick leave or vacation time. You'll need it to track your MINI across the pond, and motor around for the first day or so of. . . well, it's not so much ownership as a new relationship!

Eat lots of chocolate while you're waiting. Seems to be the only thing that helps...


Congrats and enjoy!

Jackie, be careful... you're gonna hurt yourself. Have you checked out picking it up at the factory? You shouldn't have that long of a wait if it's coming to Germany (no shipping across pond).

Hey! I would love to pick it up from the factory .... but ... that's in England and I'm in Germany and well ... that wouldn't work out that well ... plus it's a customs thing!

Great Idea though!

It's a Cooper Clubman ... we figured since my husband already has an "S" I figured that I needed the sunroof and radical seats more!!
