I agree. That's what I have, except with chrome trim.

When I first got mine, I got lots of compliments specifically because it does not have a black roof like most do. It spent some time at the BMW dealer where they do the upgrades to get an Ipod adapter, and they loved it there. I originally wanted black and white, black with white roof or white with black. But since the white is offwhite and the black is jet black, I decided I didn't like it so much. Also, in this climate, a dark roof isn't a good idea. I think matte black stripes would look good, though.

The pepper white is a distinctive, rich warm color. But not a fun color. My virtual cars are always red. I'm not sure why I was in a black/white mood at the time. And I do think it's a shame to not have all the fun stripes and such. Next time.

+1!!!!

I agree completely. When I first started configging, I was PW/B with bonnets. Not that thats bad (I still like it), but I eventually skipped all stripes and went PW/PW. Very rare at events and sightings, which I love. I see a lot of PW/B and Im happy I went my path. Its all good tho.

I get a lot of compliments on the road. I see a lot of people do double-takes and give the thumbs up. I can imagine that doubling when I lower.

Thanks for hanging in there PW fans! Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. I also hope that you all stay out of trouble if you live where the weather turns poor. Now for the new members that I've left unadressed (sorry ).

How about we look at the smallest unclaimed numbers on the lists. The lowest unclaimed number is 114; let me know if that's not ok. I've updated the above list to reflect the change.

Thanks! And happy new year to all of my PW brethren out there!

Add me to the list please

Greetings,

Took delivery of my pepper white/black roof mini on Dec 16th. Snowed 22" the next day, then snowed a total of 5' in the next 3 weeks. Finally took it out of the garage a couple of days ago. Wow what a ride. Could I please have #2601?

howdy, howdy, howdy. Hope everyone's having a good January. Denver has been very nice of late; un-seasonally warm. It hit 70 today; very unusual. <shrugs>

I thought I'd share a couple photos I took today with my fellow PW brethren !

These are a couple of shots of a fellow band member I took today. He has an endorsement with Gretsch Guitars, most of his guitars are very "flashy". When he showed me this flat black model, I thought it would look cool with him leaning against the car going with the Blacked out look I've got going on with my Boo !

Me too!

November was the month I got my "05 PWB MCS from my local BMW dealer. I love it and am finding out about all the MINI nuances. Stuck wheels, Service Engine Light, but still with all the demands for attention I have never had a vehicle that gives me such a kick (had a '67 Harley 1200 chopper and '69 Chevelle Malibu w/350). Please add me to the Pepper White Peerage List.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay here. With winter weather I've been less involved with the mini community than I'd like. Past that I've been busy. Sorry to disappear like that, but here's another update. Thanks for hanging in there!

Hi. My first time here to the Peerage of the Pepper White Club. Mine is the '08 MCS Cabrio (6spd)... I see that Salt and Pepper already asked if we were welcome. May I please have #922? Don't know exactly what it means but my guess is that I am supposed to be here!

Thanks!

Is this number available?

I'd like to add my '05 PW MCS as #2388 if still available.
Thanks for the welcome to the club.
