Yes, I know my username says BRG. This is because I still have (and LOVE!) my BRG MC and I guess my wife got tired of having me come home everyday saying "I love my car!" because she decided to order an HC Clubman which we have recently taken possession of. Now she comes home everyday saying "I love my car!".
Lucky me, the day after we got her I got to drive her up to Whistler. Great drive (other than the construction) even though we had to take it easy due to the break in period.
We love our cars! (I guess I'll have to change my username to honour both)

 

Did I post here already? I hope not....wifey and I were at the dealership this last weekend hanging out with our MA and we walked outside and we saw it....a HC clubman s....I'm sold on the color. the flake, the color when not looking directly at it, looking at it in the dark...and not exactly seeing the sport stripes until the light hits it just right. Fully in love with a color. It's going to be a few months, but my name goes on the list in February.

Opting to stay neutral in coloring with a punch black seats for lumber, silver/gray darker interior and Oak accents....I've never felt this way about a color before..too weird. You truly have to see the color in person to apprecaite it fully. I didn't dare test drive it....but I did sit in it....a bunch.

Makes me freak out a little that I'm so ready for all the options I'm setup with and don't have to think twice.

anywho...just thought I'd share.

 

I can totally relate. My H/C baby is on his voyage across the Atlantic and I'm having a real hard time waiting for his arrival.

 

call it milton after milton s hershey

 

Okay, that one's pretty good.

 

I'm finally picking up my HC Clubbie today after work!!! I can't believe this day is finally here!

 

Lucky you. Have a great time motoring. I'm about two weeks behind you.

 

Those of us on the high seas are happy for you!

 

Can i join the HCOC?

 

nice car gotsmart. what wheels are on it

 

^ R108

Gotsmart...awesome car, awesome wheels

 

Thanks! Those are 17" OEM MINI wheels, style R108. They're all over the accessory catalogs up here, but they're never identified.

I had to go to this page so i could find out what they are so we could order them for our car.

The stock 16" wheels will be used for our winter tires.

 

really nice! ... same car as mine minus the killer wheels that you have

 

Here's the latest Poochstyle.com mat with my two English Pointers in my HC Clubman:

 

Very nice! My sister-in-law has a Poochstyle bed in the back of her MINI Cooper for her Golden Retriever.

 

Looks great! I should have my side flaps for my mat this week! Can't wait!!

 

Welcome! Nice Clubbie!

 

I've had my HC/B Clubman for a little over 7 weeks now so I guess I should officially join the club... Almost @ 2K on the odometer... Register me...

We need pics!!!

 

Well my pessimisim about being able to update the original membership list proved to be completely unfounded.

Someone has fixed the system so that the original membership list can now be updated.

Please see post #1 for an updated list. Welcome to all the new members. There certainly are a lot of us with excellent taste.

digi0123 - let us know when you place your order and you will be added to the list. (As long as you don't change your mind on the color.)

 

looks like I'll be FINALLY motoring by this weekend. I think I was HC member #44. Man this wait has just been . I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas morning to finally arrive.

 

I hope I'll be motoring with geoffv too this weekend. My HC/B MINI arrived at the VDC a week ago but it's still not at the Dealership

 

don't forget to post pics!!!

 

I'm heading to the dealer to pick up the Clubman tomorrow morning! I'll upgrade to the official HCOC club badge when I'm officially motoring. Pics to follow next week, as I'll be away from the 'pute.

It feels like Christmas Eve!

 

Congrats to all the new owners!!! ... but this thread is seriously lacking pics for the last few pages.
