Congrats on the new Mini, it's awesome! I love how the garage matches the bonnet stripes. Very clever!

The car came exactly as I ordered it, which was a relief.

Wow, Eddie, congrats! Your car looks super amazing!
I kept an eye on your delivery saga, so I'm really happy to see you with car in-hand the way you wanted it. I'm sure you are really enjoying it.

And your garage looks pretty awesome! I'd ask if you'd come over and do mine next, but I'm sure you are pretty busy with that whole "motoring" thing these days!

Congrats!!
Jon

Thanks!

I hope no one else has to go through what I had too. But I feel much better now that my MINI is here.

Beaut, Eddie. I'm so happy it finally came through, and as ordered. I would have been committed if I had to go through what you did.
