I, too, got my MINI a nice car wash. It also got some little brothers and sisters (Scalextric) so the really aggressive motoring only happens in 1:32 scale.

I got her a one of Ian's nice auto-up track-mode circuits. We also spent the morning playing in the soapy water. Boy does she ever sparkle.

I got mine 5 quarts of Mobil 1, and I got a set of leather doorpulls (like armrests on the doors) for a friend's MINI.

I was supposed to get me MINI for Christmas
Poor thing is sitting up at dealership waiting for paperwork. Pickup on Monday they tell me. My wife did get me a really cool accessory though.

Giles got Union Jack valve stem caps. I got 3 three ornaments made from Triple C models that look just like Giles. I've still got two more Christmases left to go, though, and I'm thinking I might wind up with a nice MINI shirt or two.
