Add me to the club (which I was unaware of until today).
2009 JCW Hot Chocolate Clubman with less than 30,000
miles which replaced my 2003 BRG R50.
Picked it up about 6 weeks ago and have already added
17” Enkei P01 wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport 4s tires,
a 25.5 mm H Sport hollow rear bar, powerflex fca bushings
And some other minor bling.

What number am I?

So, count me in this HCMetallic Club. I did change something on Roxy's rear end though. What do you guys think? Geeky? silly, or OK? :-)

Chocolate Fundy Sea | 2009 MCC HCM

Took my first MINI (2009) for a wintery cruise to Maitland, NS. Auto salvage run to clean up a few minor missing bits and pieces from purchase.

Ended up meandering the Fundy Coast of Nova Scotia in a heavy blow. The sea was as chocolate as the MINI.



Slick by the chocolate Sea. Epic mission. One of many to come.
