'07 S picked up last night!

Hortense arrived home last night. She's quite a looker-CR with white roof and stripes. Unfortunately, no pics yet due to snow/sleet/ice/rain/and darkness. Hopefully tomorrow will be a sunny day. I already managed to lock my fob in the boot. With comfort access, I'm not sure how I could have managed this! Any ideas?

Congratulations on your acquiring your new R56!

Hortense is quite a unique and victorian name. How did you come to name your MINI Hortense? Just curious?

Looking forward to some pics!

I wanted something British and old-lady-sounding. Edwina and Millicent were contenders, but Hortense (Hoor for short) was the winner. My friends and sisters were involved in the process.

Great looking ride and the interior is awsome. The ground hog said winter is just around the corner and that white substance on the ground will be gone. Enjoy!!!
