5280 Membership

Is the dues for a single person or does it include significant others? Or per mini?

Picked up a 2006 MCS in Space Blue Metallic a couple weeks ago, detailed it Saturday only to have it bashed into by someones door today



I see that Rallye is a recommended place for repairs, info?
Google didnt turn up anything.

Thanks!

dues cover one person. It's always been pretty flexible in the past as far as spouses, kids go. I'd say if the spouse is going to be as active as you, to have both register, if it's more of a part time thing, don't worry about it.

the reason behind this is that occasionally the club will pick up the cost of things like a meal, entry fee to events, swag, discounted events etc, so if it's occasionally that the other half attends it's not a big deal, but if it's a regular thing, you should both be registered.

as for repairs, I can't say, luckily I havent had to go down that road myself yet..

Jeremy hit it on the nail, good response. I agree. I use the 80/20 rule. Only about 20% of the time my wife attends functions with me.

Of course, we have two MINIs but it does not cost the club anything to drive on the events, just the incidentals.

Go with one membership and if you hit a lot of the club activities where we decide to pay, consider signing up for two memberships. Kids, always get a pass.

On the repair, you could use Rally watch the other thread for commentary on the repair quality, I think it will be good, I have used Fisher Auto Body in Boulder a number of times, always happy with the work. Also, you can use a shop Schomp or MOL might recommend, if they do the dealers MINIs or BMWs.
