hi friends, I posted quite a few pictures of my new Clubman S in my gallery here! Hope you like them all..

included in my gallery are memories of my old mini cooper S 2006 which I posted a long time ago

 

Very nice! Did you get the parts that were backordered?

 

Yes i finally got them in after persistence! thanks!!

 

Looks good bridgehorse! You steering wheel seems to have exploded though.

 

NICE! That was my second color choice and the color I almost picked off the lot. I sure love silver and grays and miss having that color scheme as far as dirt and dust goes. My blue always looks dusty

Looks a lot like your old MINI just bigger

 

Yes it does and if they took away that extra side door, it would. The clubman is alot bigger in my opinion. very spacious.

thanks for the compliment~

 

actually if members here would go to my web site, they can see the pictures much clearer and larger for some reason....

check them out at my web site..!!

 

Very nice!!!

THANKS!!!

 

Whats up with your steering wheel?

 

I am not sure if you are talking about mine, but if you are, its just a cover for the steering wheel for a better grip. I aCTUALLY took the cover off the 2006 mini after I sold it.

 

Your Clubman looks very nice - well done!

 

thank you very much!!!

 

You own MySpace?

Congrats on the ride...

 

lol, no, i just have a web site via myspace..thanks alot for the compliment!

 

In your pic Clubbie9 what are three controls to the rear of the shifter? I didn't notice them during my test drive. I think the outer two buttons are the window controls but what is the **** in the center? Thanks.

 

Those are the navigation controls...

 

received my mini adventure field kit today via fed ex..pretty cool! this one is alot better than the kit i got in 2006 for my other mini...

btw, i am going to wait till the 2009's arrive in...then i will order another mini S!

 

Oooh! What differences with the kit?

 

there are just alot more souvenirs here in the kit, booklets, bumper sticker, mouse pad (real cool) and a few other really cool stuff

 

I got the kit yesterday as well!

 

cool! I think the kits are different for each different model car...

 

Can't believe I have over 1300 miles already on my new clubman. I just bought it in march of this year...is this alot already or is it just normal and in range? I really don't drive alot, I don't know how I have over 1300 already...i feel like i am being cheated

 

Ours is a daily driver for Mike. He puts LOTS of miles yearly due to the nature of his job. We took delivery of our Clubman on 2/16 - and we have 5500 miles already.

wow, that's alot! I don't feel that bad now..I always heard that it should be 15,000 miles a year for a car..My 2006 mini S had 31,000 miles on it when I sold it a couple of weeks ago, and i bought it in nov 2006.
