Seeking admittance to the Chilli Red Owners Club

Hey Guys,

I have been a lurker in this forum for about an year and bought my Chilli red MCS last thanksgiving. Yesterday I got a brand new SLR camera and finally got a chance to marry my two passions: my car and photography. I hope I am not too late to seek admittance to the Chilli Red Owners Club!

I thank all zealots in the forum who enjoy the great car our Minis are! I learnt a lot from you all, which has made driving my car even more enjoyable. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Edit: Added hyperlinks to hi-res images.

Surely you mean the Black-Roofed Chilli Red Owners Club. It too is a splendid organization with many members.

Wow! Great taste!

I've got one almost exactly like yours being completed tomorrow at the factory.

Yours is the closest match photo for ours that I've found anywhere, so of course I have new wallpaper on my laptop.

Thanks, fundude.

First welcome to NAM and congrats on your new CR/B MC fundude

BTW you might want to edit your original post because you want to use "lurker" not "stalker" as stalker has kind of a creepy meaning.

Also head over to General Topic and add your name to the Chili Red Owner's Club thread and get your CROC #.

MakoBimmer - Signed up at the CR/B club, thanks! Welcome to the club, the torque at 1700 RPM in this sweet car is sure to impress you. Warning - you will tempted to peal off at every light!
