My intro - Where's Perry?

Long time reader of this particular sub-forum - but short term owner so far. Last Wednesday I picked up my custom ordered '16 S w/ the JCW tuning kit installed for me prior to delivery (went on a couple of test drives with it on in-stock cars, was sold instantly). We traded in our '12 S Clubman (great car bittersweet to let it go, still miss it a bit).

Sadly its basically snowed every single day since we picked up the car so my time with it has been limited so far, didn't stop me from rinsing it off for these pictures.

This one is named "Perry" ... dumb humor from me, on a trip to Disney World a couple years back we fell into a habit of watching Phineas and Ferb, and for those that have seen the show the running joke is "where's Perry" ... so we can say that when we're in a parking lot looking for the car, eve put a Agent P antenna topper on.

EDIT: - forgot to mention those are the winter/snow wheels on it currently ... the stock wheels only managed to stay on for 18 miles before we had to swap over.

Very nice and nice "snow wheels" too! Poor baby has to endure snow? I'd have to have a winter junker if I lived in the snow belt! By the way, I sold my '12 Cooper and moved to a new 2015 Cooper 3 weeks ago. I also have "parting pains". I've found that driving the new one cures that in a hurry--take a spin in your Perry if you're missing the Clubman.

Thanks
We get a little lucky in Colorado, it may snow but usually in the city it's gone within a day if not less. It has to endure it but only for short periods. Now it's been left at the airport while I'm out of town again.
