New Mini Owner

Hello, I am a brand new Mini owner, well almost, I pick her up on Friday 4/30 and I am so excited. I have been reading a lot of the entries here as well as on the Mini site, wow what a fantastic group of people all of you are. I will try to post a picture of her once I pick her up. She is Chili Red MCS with white bonnet, side mirror andd roof strips.

Yes, her name is MiniD even though she is not a diesel (I got questioned on that due to the UK has the Mini in diesel). The reason I named her Mini D is that my license is CindiD

Ah. Well, that makes a lot of sense. My baby is Violet, even though she'll be all black. I'll just touch her up with purple seat covers and probably purple stripes.

I love the name and I think the purple stripes and seat covers will be awesome..So is your baby in production, on the pond or have you already gotten her/him.

Thanks, can't wait till Friday. Home from the office today with a cold, but hoping that gets better before I pick her up.

Your baby is gorgeous rataczak. My baby is the same color, but since there are 1000's of different add on's they are not the same. I think that's one of the things I really like about the Mini. Anyone can order a car/truck to some of their specific wants, but how many company's have as many different options like Mini (NONE)!! I don't think there are too many Mini's that are the same if any.

Thanks! She's in production but I don't know where in production she is. The automated system says she's scheduled for completion May 1st. Looking at the ship schedule, I don't think she'll get on one til something like the 10th.
