Wow Kikimowse thats an excellent shot...You do TAKE MY BREATH AWAY.
Thank you Oxtox, Germgirlpa, BrunsenH, J3kidford and Digibob for your nice comments on STYLA. Digibob no surprise to all of us here that you are loving your car. It looks stunning. I very seldom see british racng green MINI's eventhough according to motoringfile BRG and chili red are the most popular MINI colors sold both globally and in the US. You need to be very careful with that color when you wash your car to minimize the risk of swirls.

That's a good difference I take it. I am not going to pay $300 again for one run flat tire. Are the Bridgestones smoother running? I will be looking for normal tires when my run flats wear out. I only got 10,000 miles on the front two before I had to replace them with another pair of run flats.

Much smoother riding AND excellent handling. Well worth it. No more RF for me! My MA advised me to check these tires out. He'd put them on his and he's flat out recommending them.

How to go about joining?
No pic yet - weather sucks
I just bought a 2008 sidewalk edition MCS conv. Works
Astro black with black interior supposedly one of 100 built but I haven't been able to confirm
last one on the lot at the local mini dealer
I decided on this rather than a new style.
Also anything to check into? I'm in the process of winter wheels and snow tires as Chicago weather is not a good environment for summer Pirelli's

Hi Sidewalkers. Don't you just get sick of those SUV drivers going on and on about how they just love their huge vehicles because of all of the extra seating and their ability to haul anything? Well try this out for extra seating and hauling anything! So there!

The 19th of last month was the two-year anniversary of taking delivery of Crumpet. After 24 months of ownership I can't believe she has just under 10,000 miles on the odometer. Think I've decided Crumpet spends too much time in the garage and not enough time on the road. After our imminent move to North Carolina it may be time to change the daily driver and enjoy more top-down fun in the Carolina sun.
