That is a cool sign, and must have some of the muscle cars gnashing their teeth.

Thats pretty cool. However, it just seams like an open invitation for everyone on the road to try and race you.

I'd purchase one just to add to the man-cave (i.e., garage) decor...

More likely rolling their eyes. Not unlike a tiny dog barking away, it's a bit out of touch with reality.

We are talking the MINIverse here, which is a reality unto itself, with its own quirky and eccentric logic. As an aside, I guess you never heard the story of how the Yorkie put the weightlifter into hospital. It wasn't pretty.

Hey, hey, hey----chill. I know what you're going through. You'll get your MINI this weekend. I was out of touch with reality while I was waiting too.

Oh, BTW, a Bulldog is NOT a tiny dog . . . .

Cheers and congrats on your new baby!

It's reality in the corners.

The sky IS a lovely shade of purple in our MINIverse today, isn't it??

I prefer to think that the universe is the way it is so that we MINIverse dwellers can enjoy ourselves without having everyone else being a part of the act. We're the show and they're the spectators.

true.

Peaches: thanks, arrived today, need to rack up some miles before I can properly test it out. So far it's everything we'd hoped.
