After 4 months, my MCS JCW is here!

Well, I've endured 4 loooooooong months of waiting, and my Mini has finally arrived. It's a 2005 MCS CR/W with Packages 1, 2, and 3, with LSD, JCW, Union Jack mirrors and valve stems, iPod adapter, glove box organizer, saddlebags, rubber and carpet floor mats... Thanks to Mini of Murray, UT, for such a fine experience and delivery.

Congratulations Nozz! I guess that little "test drive" in my JCW did the trick.

Be careful, the first 1200 miles are the WORST. Your right foot will naturally want to mash to the floor, fight the urge...

edit... By the way... I'm jealous of your LSD... Enjoy it!

Thanks fella's. I'll take more pictures, that's easy. I took the wife and both kids out around the mountains of Utah, then to go for ice cream. Damn the thunderstorms, but it was awesome.

I forgot to mention leather... it feels sooo good on my bum when the seat heaters kick on. More pictures to come.

Hey, another MINI of Murray delivery! I collected my Black MCS on 4-28, not long after Larry.

Now, as for that JCW package, may your driving record remain in tact!

Beautiful car! I admit I'm biased, because if those wheels were white and the seats tan...it'd be virtually a clone of mine!
