Another New Cooper S owner!

Hi all-
New to this site and to the MINI brand-Long story short; My girlfriend took delivery of a new Cooper Clubman back in April this year. Pepper White with black roof and mirrors and a 6-speed manual!

I really enjoy driving the Clubman and since she has had it I always ask to drive when we head out- not much luck there! So,I took the plunge and ordered myself a new 10 Cooper S hatch in ,er, Pepper white with black roof and mirrors. I took delivery last Thursday after getting a great deal at MINI of St. Louis and 264 miles in I am having a riot with it. Here are a few pictures of her 10 Cooper Clubman and then my 10 Cooper S.

Above is my GF's 10 Cooper Clubman with Blackjacks and a six speed manual!Below is my 10 Cooper S - Yeah-Yeah I know its a little nerdy to both have the same color

Greetings and welcome to the NAMily, Toads MINI!

Congratulations on acquiring your MCS... looks sharp!

Very nice pics of you and your GF's MINI... we thank you for posting up those pics and if you happen to have some more feel free to share with your brothers & sisters here on NAM.

264 miles sure went by fast I'll bet... Ahead lie many more smiles and miles for you and your PW/B MCS!

Enjoy every moment behind the wheel and Motor On!

Thanks Sabre....I have extended Viper stripes being fabricated for me by the vendor who tinted the windows that will extend all the way down the front & rear bumpers. I have also ordered the Black-Jack sunroof roof decal for the Clubman and then I am done $pending for a while! well Maybe a K&N drop-in filter for the S to enhance the 'pssst' blow-off sound- then I am done!

I'll post pictures of both cars when they are done-Cheers.

What is that old adage? Oh yes, something about 'the couple who has matching MINI Coopers together stays together'! Congrats on your purchases and becoming one of the increasingly more spotted multi-MINI families (I think the Surgeon General needs to put out a bulletin of the natural addiction to these cars)! You have some wonderful photographs, those some gorgeous looking Coopers ya got there. I know you both must be extremely chuffed about your new babies! Don't forget to wave, have fun!
