Congratulations MINI blur! I'm jealous you have your MINI already. I ordered so I'm going through the loooooong wait!

In The Pink, I'm in West Chester!

Love the color choice also and I'm hoping to take mine up at some point this year to visit friends in Lancaster.

wow, thanks:)

Thanks guys.
From Pittsburgh.

Plan on autoxing.

I have loved the mini since I first saw it. I am liking the color. Hesitant at first as I am a dark/grey/blue car guy, but this IS mini color.
This car has so much personality.
I am super pleased with the handling. I have my sports cars but for a daily driver I needed a car that was MTB friendly, for autox, able to carry tires (back seat, I hope).
Looking forward to years of fun with it. I have so many newguy questions, but I am no new guy to forums so I will do a bit of reading before I ask "dumb" questions.
I was suckered into more payments than imaginable. I hope minis are reliable as this one needs to last a long time.. long time. Needs to run a long time. Any suggestions... Any obvious mechical pitfalls. (I am an ex- mechanic, turned engineer)(IOW all work done at home garage.)

Thanks again.
