R56 turned 100K over the weekend

Our Mini turned 100K miles over the weekend so I gave it a nice wax/polish.

Thanks, it is the wife's car but I do enjoy driving it especially with Michelin Pilot Super Sports on it.

Great looking MINI!
Mine's a 2013 -- drove it to work for 2 years (18 mile round trip) and then retired, so it only has about 67k miles on it.

Black looks so good when clean, but hard to keep that way sometimes.

As an unintended owner of three black cars currently, I know exactly what you mean.

I washed and waxed mine a few weeks ago while I was off. Was very surprised at how well it turned out. Those with black cars understand, the 30 seconds after you're done washing it is the best a black car is going to look lol

Hince why I go out and wipe the pollen off everyday and I bet my neighbors think I’m nuts, but I have the cleanest car period in the lot.
