Lizzy's Here

Hi all,

Just posting to say I took delivery of my MINI Lizzy Bennet today! Had a smile on my face the whole way home. I posted some pics in my gallery... so happy! I'm looking forward to driving her around tomorrow!

Thanks! I sent out a slew of 'baby pics' last night and everyone is in love. I'm actually very excited about driving to work today!

Hah! I know exactly how you feel since I picked up mine last Saturday. From the dealership, I drove "everywhere" that afternoon (and evening). I felt the same excitement last Monday commuting to work.

Congratulations on your new MINI.

Lizzy Bennet!!! I love it.... did you name her after Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice? Or is it just a cool coincidence?

She's lovely!!!!!!!!

But of course! She's named after literature's spunkiest heroine!

I also got lots and lots of smiles and waves from folks (and the toll lady!)... this car makes everyone smile.
