Super Casper arrives in a flash! Thanks MINI of Nashville!

After buying 5 MINIs from 5 different dealerships I almost feel like a secret shopper for MINI USA!! I made a return trip to MINI of Nashville and John Monk for number 6. They didn't disappoint me. I am so glad to have Casper II in time to work on his super powers before the Dragon Run.

Here's a partial view. The rest cannot be revealed until Casper gets all his chequers back on.
And John....watch out!!! There's a giant bulldog behind you!

queenB,

No wonder the MINI is so hard to get here in the west, you are buying them all!! Are you one BAD driver or are you planning on breeding them?

Great color choice, but I like PW/B and I'll bet Casper is PW/PW.

Earl

P.S. You do know you can wash a MINI and not replace it everytime it gets dirty don't you.

No MINIs have been harmed in the process.

Hi Earl, I'm Donna. I am addicted to Minis and MINIs. I must admit at this moment three classic Minis and three new MINIs reside here. After years of trying to shake it I gave up and immersed myself. Oh yeah, son's name is Cooper Stephen. He claims all of them are his because they have his name on them.

Donna, I'm glad to see your camera didn't break. We enjoyed the brownies (a lot). Thanks for those and your business. Can't wait to see the new and improved Casper at the Dragon! And if you ever need a baby sitter for that Lotis, you just let me know!

Just have to say this is a hilarious post.

And congrats, queenB, on your excellent taste in colors.

Congrats queenB!
I can't wait to see Casper II at the Dragon!
Make sure you get through break-in before then. I just got my new MCS through. And to think I was worried I wouldn't be through break-in by May.

Oh no.....only three MINIs and three Minis, they are smaller you know . Unfortunately, they have to take turns in the garage. I am trying to add a carport though. Oh....and one MINI is for sale if you know of anyone in the market for an '04 PW/B.

From one queen to another .....thanks tfqn. The piano black dash was suggested by my MA, though so he gets credit for that.
