Oh by the way...

I picked up my MINI Cooper S two weeks ago, on July 28th.

It was a shockingly easy experience. Inspect car, test drive, sign some papers, get a lesson on the workings of the MINI, leave with a big grin and a very light wallet. The dealer didn't try and upsell anything, and I got free floormats!

She had 8 miles on the clock, now shows about 600 miles on it. I've washed her once very carefully, since I didn't have my proper washing bits yet. But tomorrow she gets her first major cleaning and waxing, I actually bought car wash & wax products along with micro-fiber towels. I've never wanted to wash a car before, my last car got washed 3 times I think. I'm actually looking forward to it. It's weird.

And without further adieu...


I will be posting some more pics of the before/after wax and the mods I've done.
