Okay all you Absolute Black owners. I have a silly question for you all. What is the best way to dry your CM after washing it without it spotting? I use a chamois but it's not working too great. It's hard here in the AZ sun. I appreciate any tips you all can give me to keep Sir Brixton nice and shiny!

For me I use Adam's Polish waffle towels and as soon as I'm finished spraying it off, I pull it inside the garage and begin towel it down. If you can't or don't have a garage the only advice I can give you is to use a detail spray after a complete drying.

Thank you! I will try to find those towels.

New Countryman
I just traded in my 2011 Ice Blue Clubman for a 2012 Absolute Black Countryman. I had them black out the chrome, tint the windows and add a matte black union jack to the roof. It's awesome, looks great with the black headlight housing. Love IT. I will add pics when I get some taken.

Looking forward to the pics, Lil Blue... my wife keeps positing the union jack application on a AB we may order... I'd love to see one in application.

So, are you going to change your username or what?

We're moving from a 2011 Clubman S as well...

Great looking CM JB. I wouldn't park it in the Carrefour lot either.

I cannot wait to get my MINI!! Ordered 2/25 and it shows "Waiting for Transport" as of 3/8. I ran into the sales guy at the local auto show this weekend and he was pretty confidant that it would be here before the end of April!

Ordered a completely blacked out ride with red door panels. Its going to definitely be a dark ride. Will post pics when it arrives.
