Hello from Eastern Ontario!

Hi everyone.....
Been dreaming of getting my MINI for years & lurking about the forums not wanting to register until I'd ordered my own. Now it is done!

Just ordered my '10 MCS BRG fairly loaded Still waiting for a production date but looks like it will be late May before I get my dream car. Lots of reading in the forums though to keep me busy. Time to stock up on quality cleaners, waxes & polishes!

Happy motoring everyone.

Hello. I'm in Ottawa with a 2010 Clubman that I picked up at the beginning of January.

If you're interested in 'local' activities, you can check out Ottawa Mini Club, which meets once a month and has a few things already on the schedule for this year. There's a drive to a sugar bush sometime in April, for example.

www.OttawaMINIclub.ca

All the best,

Did you buy your Clubman at Mini Ottawa East? It's unfortunate that there's only 1 Mini dealership in the area.

I was wondering if this club was operational, as the forum seems pretty quiet. Good to know that there is some activity going on!

Welcome to NAM and I know that the wait for your car seems forever but hopefully the time will pass quickly and you will soon be a MINI driver.

Yes, to the dealership. I am hoping something comes of the rumoured move to allow BMW dealers to service MINIs. Otto's (on Hunt Club Rd.) is a lot closer to me.

Yes, the club is open for business. And you're right, the forums are pretty quiet. But sign in and keep an eye on the Events area.

Woo Hoo. It took a few days but got my production number today!!! And was told it's a March production number so I should expect delivery by the end of April instead of the end if May as I was expecting. What a great day :-)

can I use my production number on the ol.miniusa.com that everyone talks about? I tried earlier but was denied access with an error saying that the database didn't recognize the number.
