R56 Picture sharing and R56 promotion

Other than I really like my R56 MINI, we have been getting some smiles and pictures taken the last few days.

I thought I would share my three favorite pictures of the week.

A friend who owns a small car retail shop in Louisville Colorado wanted to do a new website splash page, so he asked if scooter and his Ferrari 308 could star together for a few weeks. I said yes, of course, the MINI is not forsale, Btw.

WebSplash

Early in the week we had lunch with anothe MINI owner, contrast of the R50 and the R56 side by side, plus a visit to Detailers Paradise on South Broadway in Littleton/South Denver to get necessary supplies for the Sunday wash and shine.

We do love to drive about and I like taking pictures along the way.

Very funny how the Ferrari makes Scoot look so tall! And that DP shot is like a journey to Mecca for the peeps in Detailing 101! Thanks for sharing

Thats not a R50, thats a R53! , also your thread would get greater feedback if it was in the right forum, Motoring Photography forum, try there!

I guess I will have to check the MINI R lineage. I thought the 2002 MINI S was an R50. Thanks for the correction.

Also, I figured pictures in general works out fine. Next set I will put in the MPF.
