Got my MCS!

I am now in possession of a shiney new LB/B MCS with the premium package. I picked it up after returning from a business trip. She has about 500 miles on her now.

As you already know, it's a total blast to drive. The only sad part is I have yet to see another Mini on the road while driving. I'm looking forward to my first Mini-wave.

We have gone thru a driving rain storm and I'm happy to report no leaks. Actually, the only minor complaint I have, well, my wife has is the fuse box cover will not totally close at the bottom.

Stay tuned for some pics and more comments as I get to know her better.

Congrats - can't wait to see pictures... I'm sure a trip to the dealer can fix that pesky fuse box issue...

The fuse box thing is common. Mine doesn't snap in tightly, but it stays closed. Take some pix of your new ride!

16" bridge spoke rims. They look good and appear to be the easiest to clean.
