Getting Close

We were hoping to have our new Mini before Christmas but weather caused her to be delayed. BUT, the dealer did tell me she was in and that she would be delivered to the Mini dealer on Mon. He told me where they are delivered and my wife and I went to see her. She is so cute, can't wait to bring her home. She still needs her prepping, her stripes and white top treatment. but does she look good.
I hope I do this right (uploading). I took a few pictures of her in the 'nursery'. She was with about 9 others, I guess waiting to go to their new homes also.:smile::smile::smile:

Merry Christmas to All.

I didn't order the sport package. If I had the stripes would of already been on. They will be put on at the dealers on Mon.

I was going to order a cup holder but the dealer said the '05's now come standard with one. I did forget to look to see if the arm rest was installed. I HAVE TO HAVE an arm rest.. Maybe that's also dealer installed. It's long so both people can use it. It doesn't have the storage area underneath like I've seen some others have.

Can't wait until I can get my grubby little hands on that wheel. Guess I'll have to wash them for a change.

Yeah, my dad had the plastic stuff in a 50 Chrysler and when he got rid of it the only thing any good were the seats and they were like new
