Anthony. Fare thee well. I will one way or another get a chance to say good bye in person. Florida is by no means LA but if 2f2F was situated there, it's gotta be relatively hot (and ricey). I go through to Miami occasionally, where oh where will you be. Try not to get drivers school BEFORE you move. It would defeat the purpose.

Best of luck Ants! Thanks for all your imput and don't forget, just because Floridians don't know how to vote, the internet still works down there too! We'll expect to see you contribute to MCO even from Florida!

Sounds like Florida has a very strong Mini group, have fun!

Yeah. Another MINI Moterer for Florida!

Where abouts in florida are you moving to?

I just ordered my S yesterday at Tom Bush in Jacksonville.

Go register at Sunshine Minis.org ,it's not the busiest, but it's florida.

Right now I live in the Jacksonville area, but on the 15 I'm moving to FSU for shcool.

Welcome to florida Ants!

Ants-
NY's loss is Florida's gain-have a safe journey.
There's plenty of nice MINIs in FL
and it's one step closer to Hawaii, at least in climate.

Well looks like their loss is our gain.

I'm in Tampa.

Watch out most people here in Florida drive lousy. (I had other words but...)

You're not going to miss me? Ugh, I'm heart broken. Give me a minute to get over it. Okay I'm done :smile: I wish you the best of luck and lots and lots of humidity. I know how much it means to you to work in the field your degree is in. How am I ever going to find someone I can harrass as much as you? I love the fact of how serious you get. How am I going to get through the day without my daily fix of "How Ant's sex life sucks." These are the things that really matter to your fellow coworkers. All joking aside, I will miss you.

Lori

P.S. Thanks for waiting till I get back from the UK.

Yep. Florida is the biggest MINI market in the nation. there are 5 MINI dealers in South Florida alone and 8 or 9 total for the whole state.

You see at least 20 to 25 MINIs in Miami every day!

Ants: Will you be working for Ferman MINI in Tampa?

Anthony,

I thought So. Cal. was where you were heading? Motoring with you and the rest of our hardcore crew was always a blast, I don't know how many more runs I will get in before my house sells and I move to Tucson, I'll try to make it to Sunday's Bear Mountain run. At least we will still have MCO to keep in touch, I'm sure the Fl. folks will show you a good time. Good luck in all your future endeavors.

X2

P.S. Buy a bug bra for your car before you go.
