Hello all,

We just picked her up last Saturday. Her name is Zoe Jane. CR/B/Premium/Auto. Lucky for me the dealer already had tint installed, makes her look that much better. It's 30% fronts/18% rears/15% barn doors. Make it nice and cool in the hot FL sun.

My previous car was Subaru WRX and they had a close knit group, but after reading quite a few posts in here, I see this group is just as tight (albeit a better age group for me).

Thanks in advance for the warm welcome. I have seen many great cars through this thread. Keep'em comin'.

LakemoorJoe and littleredclubman - both of your MINIs look perfect! Great combination with the BRG/BLK and its extras and I have to say that your CR/BLK w/tints really is an eye catcher.

If you haven't yet, be sure to post a photo or two on http://www.flickr.com/groups/mini_clubman/pool/ - but I see you've already done so littleredclubman.

New Canadianized 08 AB/SR R55

I've thoroughly enjoyed everyone's posts since I joined last week. Now it's time to give back. Just picked up my almost new (demo) AB/SR with rooster red interior R55 at the dealer yesterday. Pictures taken appropriately at night where AB truly shines!

S clubman, that is some "demo" - good for you for being able to buy it! Glad you finally came out and posted and hope you live in an area where there is an active group of MINIacs.

So fess up, how the heck did you two get together? I do note the sign "Prestige Cleaners Only" but can't believe that Prestige MINI has a dry cleaning business, too.

We had breakfast at a bagel place in Suffern...can't remember the name of the place? It was right off 287, very convenient for me on my trip back to NC.

Wolfeee and I are twin sisters with different parents, separated at birth.

It would have been a sin if we did not meet!

Well, it's great that you two got together - but so far, so close.... Wish I could have joined you. Next time, perhaps, wherever that is.
