Checking In

Greetings ,
We've lurked a couple of times and we've decided to get with the program and report in. I say we because we're a husband-wife team under this name. I first saw the new Mini in magazines around 2000, showed the wife the pics, and she said "I'm going to buy one". We ordered ours in October 04 and took delivery in Dec 04, almost 8 weeks to the day. It's a 2005 MCS (heh heh, been learning some of the shorthand while lurking) and has the cold weather, premium, and sport packages. We added the chrono-pack, xenons, and leather. BRG with white roof, mirrors, and bonnet stripes.

This site is great and very extensive. We'll be checking in from time to time and look forward to picking up a lot of info. We're located in PG County, MD. I'm sure we'll see some of you during our motoring!
