...and on 10-1-15 I finally purchased a 2010 MINI Cooper S - (R56 I think) and the color is called Hot Chocolate. It's AWESOME! It is some kind of 'Mayfair' edition -Pictures forthcoming:-)) I've wanted one ever since I was a kid and saw this movie about a bank heist involving 5 coopers -- It was made back in the late 60's early 70's and if anyone knows the name of that movie I'd appreciate seeing it again. Thanks for this forum...looking fwd to joining some local clubs in my area (Spokane, WA)

 

Congrats on your new MINI! Cant wait to see pictures.

 

...and no doubt you've seen the Italian Job redux with Charlize Theron. If you don't take it too seriously, it's a fun watch.

 

Congrats and welcome!
Those Mayfair editions are very nicely appointed, I'm sure you will love it.

 

Welcome to NAM! You may be talking about the original The Italian Job from 1969, but I think there was only 3 Mini's (red, white, and blue). Looking forward to the pictures!

 

I looked up the original "Italian Job" on IMdb and yes, that was the one! Thanks! I saw the remake several years ago but really liked the first one...Thanks!

 

You're very welcome! Yes, the original is a great one!
