Say hello to the latest MINI owner!!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that my new son took his very first car ride from the hospital in our MINI. He was born on Wednesday, a whopper of a boy. 9 pounds and 12 ounces. I have to admit that Leo will only be in the MINI over the weekends since it is a difficult task to get him in and out. Nevertheless he already has a MINI Cooper outfit.


Not to be too sentimental but this is the most exciting thing in the world. I never understood the pure joy you get out of being a parent. We had friends with kids constantly talking about it. now I understand and share their feelings.

Have a great weekend.

Sooooo Cute

He's a great excuse to get a Clubman. Maybe one to match his outfit. Congratulations, he's precious.

Thank you for all your comments. We are very excited. I completely agree on the clubman. My wife is also seems to be on board. Only hickup is that when we test drove the r56 she felt the cars steering was not as FUN as the r53 and she commented that she missed the supercharger whine!!! What a great wife. I already configured a clubman on the MINI UK site. We will see when they come state side.

Congrats for sure! If the MINI has anything to say about it that boy will grow up yearning for the curves. Maybe someday he'll get one of his very own.

i picked up this outfit during MITM, just could not resist.
does anyone know if they make little MINI baby cars? I saw quite a few bmw z3 childrens cars. I know it will be a long time before he can play with that but it will give me time to paint it EB.
Thank you for all the nice comments and well wishes,
Cenk

Good looking kid, nice outfit. I'm sure if you browse the internet you might find a MINI pedal car or one of those high end electric kiddie cars. I know my good friend bought a nice Ferrari (electric) for his granddaughter, then he built her a garage at his house (excess). I really have to take pictures over there some day.

You little guy will grow up loving MINIs which is great.
