We're now a Multi-MINI household!
 
Just wanted to post a welcome to the newest Mid-Ohio Motorer! My wife is no longer just a "passenger"... she is now a full-blown motorer behind the wheel of her new 2008 Chili Red Clubman! We are now officially Bi-Miniual :lol:

Can't make it to Feb's breakfast, but we'll be up for the March meeting and then we're planning on heading to the Columbus Car show and/or MAG to see the new Cabrios! :thumbsup:

As soon as she gets the email, look for postings from a noobie by the name of Curves906 :roll:

Congrats ... Still trying to talk the wife into a clubbie too .. no luck here

Thought about you today , we went down to the Heron nesting place to see if any are up there yet...

rigidjunkie Feb 14, 2009 04:31 PM

That is awesome, we need pictures!

Congrats from another dual MINI household! :thumbsup:

Cabrio? Sounds like a 3rd on the way!

Crashton Feb 15, 2009 08:19 AM

Wow a new Clubbie how cool is that?:thumbsup: Chili Red, gotta love it! Yep we need details & a lot of pictures. How was the test drive?

inimini2007 Feb 15, 2009 11:16 AM

Congrats!

CR&PW&JB Feb 15, 2009 11:56 AM

Be careful.... it's hard to stop at just two ! :impatient:

Congrats and as others have said, can't wait to see some pics. :thumbsup:

Curves906 Feb 15, 2009 05:30 PM

Thanks All!!!! The Clubbie is red on red right now. Hopefully this week or next MAG is painting the roof and mirrors black and putting black sports stripes on it! We only have a couple of pictures now but will post more when the clubbie gets painted. :thumbsup: Check out either the Flickr pics below... or the couple in my Gallery.

Crashton Feb 15, 2009 05:47 PM

Very nice Clubbie.:thumbsup: Thanks for sharing the pictures. Looks wonderful just the way it is, but I understand one has to youify a MINI.

I would recommend you have the dealer swap out the mirror covers with black ones rather than paint the existing ones.

IMGRFX Feb 15, 2009 06:24 PM

Multiple MINI congratulations!

That's what I wanted to do, but according to the MA @ MAG they don't have black mirror caps available... only the Union Jack, Silver, etc, etc. :sly:

WOW, how do you get any sleep with two MINIs to look after? That is so cool!

Good thing I don't have a bigger garage...hey, there is an '05 LY convertible for sale at one of the (non-MINI) car dealers in town...

PatM Feb 15, 2009 06:46 PM

2 Mini's that's great!! I should take delivery of mine the first week of March. Then we too will be a 2 MINI family. I can't wait.

Pat

rigidjunkie Feb 15, 2009 06:51 PM

No offense to others, but I think that is the best looking Clubman I have seen. Can't wait to see it after the paint dries :)

Wow! congrats! (if a little early:wink: )

Clubbie Paint
 
The clubbie goes to MAG on Monday for painting and stripes! :thumbsup: I won't get it back until Saturday though. :cry: I'll post pics once it's done. Does anyone know where I can get a "Stop Staring at My Boot" window sticker/bumper sticker??

bad venge Feb 17, 2009 08:52 AM

I'd get a local sticker/vinyl place to make you one in letters and then apply it to the window , no paint damage to worry about ...

And I'm not buying the no black caps for the clubbie :

HI Curves!! Congrats on your Clubman! It looks great and I eagerly await the "new and improved" version:thumbsup:

I think what they meant is that they Don't have them in stock and you can "only" get the black mirrors from the factory... I'd have thought they'd have them on hand...:sly:

Curves906 Mar 1, 2009 05:47 PM

The LRW has returned! :grin: It is now a Chili Red and Black. Go to our flickr site if you want to see pics!:thumbsup:

Crashton Mar 1, 2009 05:51 PM

Little Red Wagon looks great.:thumbsup: It's like getting a second new car.:nod: :)

CR&PW&JB Mar 1, 2009 05:53 PM

I like it much better with the black roof and with the stripes. :thumbsup:

Of course, a two-color roof is even better. :wink: :lol: :nod:
