>>I'll be picking up my mini in Indianapolis this December.... about 50 miles from home. But, we're moving to downeast Maine soon and the nearest dealer is in Boston! I don't even want to think about how long a drive that will be. I knew we we're going to move before I ordered, but I just couldn't resist the mini.

bigmini, when in Maine, you'll find that people come down to Boston for things all of the time...and depending on where you are in downeast, you may not be all that much further from a MINI dealer than you are now in IN. And BTW, go to MINI of Peabody (Peabody, MA) and NOT Herb Chambers in Boston. The service in Peabody is terrific (and is reported to stink at HC)...and Peabody is about 15 miles closer to Maine than is Boston!

 

2 hours and 15 minutes when there is no traffic...20 minutes more at peak traffic.
I have occasion to go to the area where my dealer is on business a couple of times a year and my mother-in-law lives about 10 minutes from the dealership so I decided with the large service intervals to take a chance that it would not be a big inconvience.

 

125 mile from my dealer on some of the prettiest stretches of interstate I know!
:smile:

 

188 miles
rumor is there will be 1 8 miles away next year

 

I am only round the block from Mini of Murray in Utah :smile:

 

Ah, the irony.
My nearest MINI dealer about 1 block away, but that happens to be the dreaded
MINI of Universal City and they are EVIL
But I will wait in traffic for my MINI!!

 

180 miles (Wichita to KC) - a beautiful drive through the flint hills

 

15 minutes from home in SLC UT.... about 1 hour from home in Seattle, WA.... from work... what work? I retired early yesterday!

 

About 15 miles from two mini dealers one thats down useless 1 (US1) and one up 287 (a good highway moste of the time) here in New Jersey. Also the one that's easier to get to gave a much better deal on the lease.
