Well, often the best photos are taken that way. Now back to the rock pile!

Newbie posting...let's see if my baby shows up on the signature line.
Picked her up 5/12 and have been yelling, "Wheeeeeeeee!" ever since.

Welcome aboard, DragonWagon - as you know, I love that name!

If you can't get the photo on the signature line - you can go to "advanced" reply and attach photos by clicking on the paperclip and uploading.

rkw, do you have particular harnesses you recommend?

Dragon Wagon,
Great looking, classy clubman. Just got my sparkling silver clubbie with black roof 4 days ago. I like the color ALOT plus it doesn't show dirt.
Love your stripes. Do you have pictures of your interior?

Harnesses

These are my frequent travelling companions, Amos (the westie) and Mariah (the corgi). Harnesses are on order from champion. I wanted to put "Let's motor" under their pictures but couldn't figure out how to do it.

Tilda, I went with stock grey/black interior, grey checker trim, chrome interior.
I saw a Clubman with that combo being delivered at the dealer and the new owner let me check hers out.
The sunlight is a little bright in the attachment.

Like you, I LOVE the Sparkling Silver, which is Olive Green!
Others that come up to me in public seem to like it, too.
When I ordered, the dealer had three Clubman(s) waiting for their new owners. Pepper White, Silver and Sparkling Silver. The Sparkling Silver jumped out at me and that was how I picked the color, well that and wanting to avoid a dirty car look.

The freebie Mini folding box is too big to leave filled up with misc items.
It takes half the boot space. It's getting folded up and put under the sub floor with towels, the water spray bottle and micro cleaning cloths for the stinking brake dust. My Dragon is now SIX days old.

How did you do that? I guess you must have a nice bit of software - looks great!

BadMINI - love your wet photo - very, very nice! Almost makes me want to go out and wash my own...but it's raining.

Count down begins for Doogs - what a thoughtful MA you have!
