(My pics don't seem to be embedding tonight, bad Internet connection, blah)

 

I'd like to join with #1515 if possible!

 

^^^ Love the black Bridge Spokes. You couldn't get them as an option in '08 so I had mine powder coated last year.

 

Mine came with silver, but I had a local wheel repair shop paint them in MINI's factory black wheel color!

 

^^^ Ahhhh. Thought you may have been the year they DID offer black Bridge Spokes. I got lucky - I work in a high school and our auto tech shop kids powder coated mine. They could only do one at a time (thankfully they're my winter wheels) so it took 2 months, but I only paid for the powder.

 

Well, mine's a 2010, so they were offered. However, the original owner didn't option him that way! I prefer any black-roofed MINI with black wheels as well.

 

Just joined and still waiting for the build to be completed. The wait is killing me. Could I have number 1211. Thanks!

 

Hi fellow pepper white peers! Just picked up a 2008 MCS and I'm loving it!

Could I get number 0907? Thanks

 

So, I don't understand. How do you join this club? Is it NAM only? I don't see it listed in their clubs directory. Does just putting a badge in your sig make you a member? Still somewhat new here so I've not figured everything out yet. Thanks!

 

Yeah, pretty much the extent of this club is to come and claim a number, post pics and in general share why Pepper White is the best color ever! Easy peasy!

Welcome to the Peerage!

 

Question for you PW guys... is it impossible to keep the boot from getting spotty after rain? It is really bad sometimes and I just have OCD and keep washing the car. Is there anything I can do so the boot doesn't capture so many spots?

 

It's called "the dirty bum" and we're all familiar with it. The only way to prevent it is to leave it parked in your garage.

Keep the hose and your bucket close at hand.

Sorry,

Little coop

 

You have the meanest "justa" of all!!!!!!

 

I've thought that this has more to do with the aerodynamics of the car. It's flat in the back, so more turbulence is possible back there, causing more dirt and exhaust solids to form on the back. Plausible?

 

Makes sense to me, as my boot is forever dirty, even with dry roads. Kinda needs to be washed every other day

 

Thats exactly what happens. I think its worse on "S" cars and even more so on the R53 since they had a tendency to run fairly rich from the factory.

 

Just wash the boot then. Oh, mine needs a good wash too, but rain here in Nashville on Thursday. Maybe this weekend.

 

Bingo. Most flat-back hatchbacks have this kind of issue; ask any VW Golf owner and you'll find they are driven crazy by it too.

Why, thank you! Even meaner when referred to as a "Straight Cooper".

Seriously, if you've never seen brandon_h's or S&CLC's or Corin's, you should check them out... really nice Coopers.

 

I was hoping one of you would say something like "you can get rid of it by buying a sweet spoiler".

Oh well. It'll just have to drive me nuts.

 

....... "you can get rid of it by buying a sweet spoiler".

How's that? (not true but I wanted you to hear what you wanted!)

 

Hmm, well if that'll do the trick... I may have to throw down a few $ to take care of that dirty bum of mine.

 

Dirty with spoiler....but I live on a gravel road, so I lose out the gate
