Of course you did not see it. They have to keep it boxed up because it is so bright. It would look at like big orange spot light.

 

We are not amused.

Finally got an e-mail. We be shooting for Saturday afternoon. Prep center put it on the truck today, should arrive in the morning. Then clean up, gas, and delivery.

Sealy - Who can't wait for tomorrow's reason why not.

 

Awesome! I couldn't believe how quickly it got from Baltimore to Cincy. I was thinking I had another week at least. They are adding the sport stripes here.

Still hoping maybe Monday.....?

So, Sealy, did you get one of the $1000-off coupons from MINI Rocks the Rivals Tour to use when you close out your CM transaction?

 

I already got a $1K discount from the git go. And, somehow, I missed the tour. At this point, I just want to get the CM.

 

Well, here I am back at home, sans Countryman. The story is now that Pure Orange was loaded on the truck on the 5th, but the trucking outfit refuses to leave the terminal without a full load. CM will be delivered whenever.

Sealy - Who's lost faith in MINI - and I don't even have one yet.

 

That vacuums. Is terminal the VDC or the dock?

 

VDC, I assume. Doesn't really matter. He's just sitting in B'more on a truck.

Sealy - Who finds it difficult to imagine more CMs going to Richmond and Cincy than to DC.

 

Pure Orange just rolled off the truck at Passport! By day's end I should be a MINI driver.

Sealy - Who needed some good news today.

 

Hey, that's great news Sealy! Can't wait to see the pictures!

 

Mrs. C. - Did Light White show up in Richmond? I don't recall seeing an announcement.

 

Yes! Picked him up last Thursday. I've been trying to post pics but not having much success. I'll try again later tonight and see if I can't get them to load.

He's incredibly handsome, fast and quite striking. Lots of comments so far! J

 

I'm very happy for you. Never lost your cool, you are an inspiration to us all.

Bill

 

Congrats! Sounds like you rented him from an escort service.

We'll compare notes later.

 

Well that took long enough. Mine was a ship behind your and it just hit dock last night. You wait this long and the trucks are the ones holding up the deliveries to the dealerships. I understand gas prices are high right now and they want a full load to save a little on fuel. But come on, lets keeps the customer happy. After all, we are the ones buying the cars so they have a job in the first place.

 

Yesssss! I've been following this voyage and can't wait to hear how it ends ... or starts, depending on how you look at it. Are you in PO heaven?

 

WOO HOO! Can't wait for some pics

 

Bill, who has no patience is waiting for a report from Sealy. Did you pick up Pure Orange? Post a picture please.

 

Pure Orange is safe at home in Cottage City as of yesterday afternoon. I took an intro pic and then lost my network access. Just got back on, so expect a pic in the Photo thread.

Initial Report: Whee dogies! Worth the wait!

Sealy - Who officially declares the Voyage of the Torrens thread closed.
