Which picture are you referring to? I would love to see it. My SO R59 is on its way to the US as we speak. Seeing these photos help pass the wait!

Just picked up our Spice Orange/White on Friday after our beloved Hyper Blue '05 MCS left us at eight years and 161,641 miles...
This MINI rocks! We love it.
No kids just a 23 year old cat named Ginny so that's what we named our second MINI.

Very Nice.... Always wanted to add some checkered squares to my side of the garage.
But then I'd have to share with the John Deere amongst other mobile devices........

Joined this club as of last night. Went to LOOK at another Mini to purchase in a few months. Well while looking for a pepper white or silver one we saw a spice orange, black roof MCSa . Long story short we didn't make it a few months . When ever it's not raining I will get some pics.

Some pics of Xiao Yu after getting tinted today.
Much better look now, and also got the tint guy to do smoke overlays on the sidemarker lights, toned them down a lot!







Now just need to get the UK flag on the roof...

Is there a secret handshake?
Picked up my SO MCS last month, finally finished the 1200 mile break-in period this past weekend. What a great car.

Anyway, here are some pics of my Spice Orange:

Garage Mates
My 2012 R57S named Jack O. Latern was lonely (since he looks like a pumpkin), so added a 2013 JCW GP named MAX. Both draw great comments from folks. The 12.5 inches of snow that we just had has kept both in the garage for a while.

Nice GP but....

Pumpkinhead had to stop by and say hello to Jack O. Lantern! (He got his name for the same reason)

SO looks even more awesome in person! Two people were trying to buy mine off the showroom floor as I was waiting to take delivery! It was an awesome feeling to say sorry but I already bought it.

It was Spice Orange day at Target yesterday...
I thought the orange/black might be seabeast, but the car had Georgia plates on, its a long way from home.
