Anyone have close-up shots of a PW/PW/S Clubman? I never even considered it until I saw a not-so-detailed picture of it that looked just awesome. Thanks in advance!

Yeah, very nice, Prost...

Simple, tasteful, and I really like those wheels.

Classy is a good way to put it, Dalmation

Hi. Newbie here. Bianca is scheduled to be built week 36 (1st week of September)

She's got a silver roof and silver c-pillars. Did I do wrong? I really wanted a contrasting roof color, but I live in HOTlanta and really didn't want to go with the black. Does anyone here have PW/S/S? Please tell me I didn't make a big mistake pairing PW with silver!

Oh, and she's going to have a Tuscan beige leather interior, Wood MFSW, English Oak trim. If nothing else, I think the interior will be sharp.

new baby comes home

First pictures of our new clubbie (in between the thunderstorms). I love it... but now I have to move to a state with a better license plate! Behind the new car is my 2000 E320 wagon. This has been a great car for us (though the repair bills can knock the wind out of you!) I felt a little bad, like bringing home a new puppy to meet the old family dog. But I am getting over it!

cheers,
Alan

I LOVE PW/S!! Check this one out. It's a JCW so it has some extra spoilers, etc, but you get the idea. Your MINI is going to be fabulous!

I have the exact car, PW/S/S with Tuscan Beige and English Oak and she is gorgeous (at least I think so). The Tuscan Beige really makes the car and it looks much better in person than in pictures. Nonetheless, take a look at my gallery.

I also forgot to mention that I live in HOT Virginia and I have a real problem with heat. The light exterior color and the light interior color really keep the car cool. In fact, I thought one of the first things that I would purchase was going to be the sun shades, but, I actually don't think that I am going to need them.

Uncle John,

This picture was the inspiration for my color choice. I saw it and went, "wow." Wavered about 3 times, then placed the order and I could not be happier. Thanks!

We love it. Swmbo picked the colors and I was not convinced until it came in. almost 9000 miles later, it still turns heads. If I'm good, I get to drive it on Saturdays when it needs gas.

Welcome napria!

Besides pbeths (who probably has the closest configuration) at least two more here have the PW/S/S combination. I'm also week 36, so we'll be kinda twins!

OMG do I know your pain. My MINI was at the Brunswick VDC for almost three weeks. I didn't handle it well. I vented a lot to people who had no idea what I was talking about. Gave me both a stress and comic relief.

Hey Napria,

It looks like, so far, we may be the only two on NAM with PW/S/S and Tuscan Beige. Will yours be an S or non-S? Did you get the bonnet stripes? I have posted a few more pictures on my gallery, if you are interested...

I just ordered a PW/S/S with Tuscan Beige, in an S. I'm getting silver sports stripes on mine. Week 34 build.
