She wanted Purple

She didn't like the other colors except silver. Like Son, like Mom

Good for your Mom!!!!!! I hope she enjoys her MINI....if I were you I'd sure be tempted to beg her for a spin in that CVT. They sound like fun!

The family that plays together, stays together.

Your mom looks great for 71! And I mean that in a totally non-disgusting way...

Congratulations to your Mom!
I take my 75 year old mom out for a spin in my MINI at least once a week. She loves it. She goes "Ooooh!" on fast sharp corners

Congrats Sid's Mom!

--->Sid, I think this is going to work out well for you. I always said you needed something else to do besides constantly detail your MINI; now you can constantly detail your Mom's MINI too!

Cheers,
Ryan

New MINIs are sooo fun! Silver is a really cool color too. Until you told us your mother's age I would have thought 20 years younger.

I'm trying to figure out if your mom looks especially good (not meant in a disgusting way either), or if we all just look great next to our Minis. Either way, let me add my congrats for having a mom with such good taste!
