Finally!!!

I finally found my almost new 2013 red MINI... with only 2,150 miles on it...





Now if someone out there likes black OEM wheels and wants to trade some almost new silver ones for mine, let me know!

Congratulations on the new toy! I see the youification bug has already bit you. I'm sure someone will want those wheels. I know I wish I had a set to trade you for them.

Congrats. I'm jealous of the color...and especially the boots. Wish I had something to offer, but I doubt you'd want '07 wheels on your 2013 (if they even fit...I have no idea).

I think the black wheels look a lot better with the red and white than silver will...but that's just me. =)

Congrats again...she's a blast, eh?

Actually, I don't get to pick it up until Aug. 16th. It's killing me!

Yeah, my favorite, too. The first time I rode in a red Mini was 1966 when I hitched a ride on I-495 from Maryland to Virginia. The guy gave me a fun ride... I've wanted one ever since. I'm sure that Mini was a lot slower than today's MINI, but it seemed really fast at the time.

Mib,
Is there a classified section here on the forum where people buy, sell and trade wheels?
Thanks,
Coot

Got it!

Drove to Plainfield, Indiana, on Friday to trade my Forester for the MINI. Then I drove it to SW Va. today for a meeting on Monday. What a hoot! Love it!
