Can we get real badges?

I'm wondering if this nice badge image, attached to my sig, can be had as a real badge?

My Clubby will be delivered presently, and I am wanting to deck her out!

Cheers

I haven't found it as a real badge, but it can be had as a t-shirt.

I like the shirts but our Clubman is Pepper white with Pepper white roof and black c-pillars and it looks like we got left out when they designed the owners club logos.

Ordere status = Retail?

So, my Clubbie went from "At VDC" to "on order". The OO can't figure out what "Retail" is, but that's the current status.

Any idea why Retail is different from "at your mini dealer"?

Cheers

Either they are disassembling it or selling it to someone else.
You may say "That's not funny!", but I couldn't resist.

At least you know its on this side of the pond!

got a production number!

Finally got a production number, it is going to be an 09, build in Sept, deliver in Oct.
I have had trouble getting it into the owners lounge but that may be a timing thing. Packages preminium and convience changed some and the 09 std is not the 10 speaker system. Was able to order a rear spoiler that was not available before so all in all I'm happy. Just waiting for the day of delivery!

Sounds like a great trip - safe motoring!

Our PW clubman arrived at Towne Mini on Friday. We drove by for a peek yesterday and will pick it up this coming week. Toot if you see us.

clear skies,
Alan in Buffalo

I will be in Williamsville until Thur. But will be back on and off. I also got my clubman at Towne. Great group of guys made the deal very smooth for doing it over the phone. Going to go check in and say hi in the morning.

Couldn't resist had to go check your car out. What a nice looking ride you have . Nice to see all the clubmans in the lot(all with sold tags ) even the nice JCW. The price is a bit much on it if you ask me but I think the spoiler looks better in person then on-line.

Thanks for looking! A number of cars arrived with with mine on Friday. Everything on the lot is sold save the two cars being used for demo. The poor showroom was bare!

I think your car was the first PW/brown Clubman I saw on NAM - it helped me make my color choices - what a nice coincidence that it also arrived via Buffalo.

cheers!
Alan

Hey all,

Unfortunately, I am not a member of any MINI owner's club, yet, but I thought you'd be interested in a pic of a Pepper White Clubman Cooper S my wife and I test-drove at the the MINI dealer this weekend...

Pepper White, Black Roof and Trim, R105's in Black, Nav, etc...




I never thought I'd be a big fan of the Pepper White because it's a little off-white, if you know what I mean, but I really like them with the black trim and wheels.

Just thought I'd share

Pepper White is really a great classic color, doesn't show the dirt of life as much as some darker colors - and there's no $500 extra fee for it either.

I'm a little off, too. Maybe that's why I ordered the color.
