I think I will have to pass on this invitation I tend to get in trouble and "spend money" when I visit the MINI showroom.

I'm going to try to stop by, porbably closer to the end, since I don't know how long training will last for the new job. Also CHECKS should be out of the shop just in time, he's going in this morning for minor accident repair.

I'm just really thankful it wasn't my fault, because otherwise I'd have to look at the damage everytime I got in my car. So he should look as good as new when I get him back. Hopefully on monday but maybe tuesday.

The damage included a few dents in the door and the rear quarter panel as well as a couple deep scratches.

No one was hurt, it was just a little shocking for both of us.

CHECKS will be back on the road soon enough

How'd the Open House go, guys?

Were there '07s there already? When are they coming?

The open house was nice but the turnout was poor. I'm sure the bad weather had a lot to do with the turnout. The new model won't be here until Jan. or Feb. and will certainly increase turnout at an open house done at that time. Let's hope for good weather for the Holiday Lights Rallye.

Yes, the weather was really bad.

Sorry we will miss the Holiday Lights Rallye We will be out of town returning the day after the rallye.

We had a great time last year though!

Thanks

I want to thank everyone at MINI Of Saint Louis. It was a very enjoyable evening and I think we all got to know each other (club members & staff) a little better. All departments were represented, very nice. I hope the next time we are invited over, the weather is better, a boat would have been a better form of transportation. Hope we can do it again when the '07s get here.
Thanks again.
Motoring down life's ever changing road, looking for dry roads,
