I'm Back in the Game

Picked up "Thunder" last night at Mini of Camarillo GP#289, gotta thank the previous owner who drove 1178 miles in over a year. It didn't take too long for the sale lady to convince me, she just started Thunder and that was good enough for me. Will look forward to many years of ownership, this morning's commute was excellent and put smile on my face.

Welcome back!! What a grand entry you chose. MINI of Camarillo is a great dealership for sales and SERVICE! I ordered and purchased my 2013 JCW R56 there. They are super people. Even though I see you live in Fullerton, it would always be worth the drive to go back to them for anything you might need. I live on the central coast 115 miles away but always take my wife's 2011 "Clubbie" and "Kado" my 2013 JCW R56 back to them.

Yeah MINI of Camarillo was super nice to me, even though they close at 8:30, they didn't rush me. In the end, it was me, sales lady, manager, and Finance guy leaving close to 10:00 PM. I got home little after 11:00 and it was a blast driving all the way to Fullerton

Nice ! Congrats. Increased the size of the pic for you. Good choice on the GP2 " 1178 miles in over a year " that's almost brand new.

I was too tired to say NO, I wonder how I look, I was pretty tired going back and forth with the manager on the selling price
