She's here!!!



My MA called me this morning to say that Abby has arrived. So, after work I stopped by to snap some pics. Sorry for the url since I do not know how to post pics in thumbnails.

She's fresh off the truck so she's all dirrty and stuff I was originally approved for a loan but the dealer did one better and offered me a better rate! So of course I went with them. I should pick her up sometime this week!!! The wait was sooooo worth it!!!

cool pics.

how do you like the "zipper" MINI car cover? I was thinking about getting that one too. If you had to do it over again would you get that cover or a 3rd party one?

MINI-ized for your protection

Did everyone else get that seal on the steering wheel when they picked up their car? The "Your MINI has been inspected from boot to bonnet--Let's Motor" seal?

Is that something new?

When I picked up my 05 in December, there was no seal on the steering wheel!

Flex just curious, what rate did you get from MINI. I have mine through my local credit union and they are doing 5.9% which their standard offering rightnow. I had 3.9 on my truck cause I bought it during a time they had finance specials going on. Dealer says I can get better with them but even if they get me 3.9 that only like 20 bucks saved a month which is not much to me.. Just curious.
