Recent Mini adoption

First time owner and loving it!! I've already learned a great deal courtesy of NAM users.

We recently took our first (of many to come) road trip up to the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Dragon (mildly since the break-in period isn't over yet).

Sorry about the photo quality, I used the cell since I was having too much fun driving to take the time to dig out the bigger camera.

Thanks LadyGodiva!! Yep, my first trip to WMW was before I went through the first tank of gas. Gotta love that place!

I_LOVE_the way your cooper looks! color/rims/stripes, everything works really well on it. Just goes to show how you can really jazz up a "justa". I'm definitely regretting getting the black roof/mirror caps on mine, shows too many scratches! Your pictures have convinced me that the roof/mirrors matching the body color can look really damn good

Nice!!! Very clean looking. Welcome to NAM and congratulations on a beautiful MINI. We'll be doing the Blue Ridge Pkwy from 441 to 74 when we go up to The Dragon next month. We're really looking forward to it.

Thanks Eddyboi!! They had a wide variety of colors on the lot, but this one "spoke" to me from the start.

Thanks NMgokart!! Finding WMW is likely going to be my downfall, but it will be a fun way to go.

Thanks Melangell!! It was a great drive. I'm hoping to make it up to MOTD (unfortunately it will probably be only for one day though ). Hope to see you there.

She's an '11, and after our recent weather is desperately in need of a bath (which sounds like more fun than doing yard work this weekend. )
