Hey everybody my R56 finally came in should be able 2 pick it up 2morrow

 

Enjoy your new car and GET OUT AND DRIVE!!! Keep an eye out for abuzavi as he's the Cruise Director around here and does a damn fine job, too. Though, I don't think he'd like being called Julie!!

Cheers!

 

Congrats! Follow your salesman's break-in instructions and remember, don't drive over 100mph for the first 1K miles (that part killed me).

 

Congrats! 1200 breakin period is the worse. Once its over, take it directly to the Ring! Enjoy. Maybe we can do a quick run when I return from US to ship the MINI?

 

Keep the speed down during break in, but doing curves doesn't need to be overly fast, and that's when the Mini is really fun to drive. My grin goes sideways.

 

Twisties! There looks to be lots of places to go drive out by Bitburg -- out on the borders with Belgium and Luxembourg, and in the hills just south of Trier. Enjoy the break in period -- get that upper body workout!

And come join us 20-22 APR for the drive and the time at the Hockenheim ring. If nothing else, it'll be a chance to get accessories-envy and to figur eout what else you need to buy for your car.

 

Julie has nicer legs... :p
