Collection Day

Bought yesterday, picked up today...Pepper White, some basic additions (Essentials Package, Lights, not much else), manual trans, and "boost inside"
(P.S. my daughter's car, but I'm sure I'll get to drive it from time to time )
Crappy iPhone pics....

I spy a Mk1 in that first shot. Sploosh.


F56's seem to look really really good in Pepper White. Good choice!

Somebody knows how to use Photoshop! Nice pictures.

And having owned a Pepper White R56 with black roof and black stripes, I have to say I really like you all white F56 -- beautiful clean look.

P.S. My wife just got back from Photoshop World in Las Vegas -- her 13th year going.

Looks good got mine optioned pretty much the same. Only option I really cared for was the lights. Also got heated seats and 17" tentacle spoke wheels. All for under 26k.

That's actually part of the design on the cover the car sat under in the collection bay

Actually those are just the results of the HDR settings on a Sony Nex-6 camera I use - I have no clue about photoshopping although I wish I did!

Similar pricing too - these cars can get a bit crazy in $$$ when you start adding all the stuff!

Congratulations to your daughter! That is a nice looking Mini-S. I do like the Pepper White paint. Nicely optioned, too!

Boostin', how would Newfoundland be as a driving destination, beyond the six or eighteen hour ferry?

It's great if the weather is great, which is always the biggest crap shoot here on the Rock. We had a great July and a horrible August, but September is fine again. But if you like scenery, and out of the way holidays, it has a lot to offer!
