Be on the lookout -- MINI for a new grad?

Or a "Mini" for a new grad. Maybe.

Some of you met my son, Paul, last Saturday at Hendrick. He is about to graduate and has recently been bitten hard by the MINI-bug . I am beginning to consider (maybe) looking for one of his own. I thought I would ask ya'll to BOLO in case a really good deal comes to your attention.

Thanks for your help.

Oh, yeah. Paul: If you're reading this, I'm just kidding. Stop reading the forums and go to bed!

While in Huntersville, running errands I saw a Pepper White convertible at the Pontiac Dealership (on Statesville Rd).
Not sure how much they're asking - just saw in passing.

MiniRee was back at Hendrick today and they have beautiful Silver 06 trade in. Might want to check it out when you pick your new one up. Luke

Thanks to both of you. Naysmini, looking for a hardshell to cover up his precious head. Luke, we'll be there first thing Saturday morning. I'll call my MA tomorrow and get the scoop.

Ya'll are the best! BTW, Paul is a newly registered NAM member. Watch out for posts from McLuvin and let me know if he misbehaves...

Never Mind!!!

I am on my way in to Hendrick this morning to take delivery of my MINI and also to place an order for my son's MCS!

His dad and I agreed that a really good kid who is turning 18 and graduating HS and who has been offered scholarships for good grades (and who has become a MINIac since I've ordered mine) deserves one of his own!

Placing the order today and I couldn't be happier! My son (whose NAM id is McLuvin) is over the moon...

We're home!`

Ramona is beautiful.
"Roland" has been ordered for my son Paul.
Roland is gorgeous.
Paul is ecstatic.
MINIRee is pooped.

I'm happy. What a so very good day.

Henceforth, Paul will be known on NAM as "McLuvin."

I'll set up bunk beds in the garage for you two. Wonder how many times you'll have to mow the lawn for a new Clubman

Wow, what awesome parents! All I got was "Now you'd better graduate college too."

Keep us updated on Roland!
