Hampton Roads Club Mini

[
Yep, in a moderate sort of way.  The finish yesterday was awesome, even if  I only saw it on tape.  :D[/quote]                                                                                                                                                                                                             :smt043 The Missus thinks the next pace car should be a MINI! I tried to explain to her that it wasn't very likelyto happen but if anybody out there should have an "IN" with Mr. George, who knows!!!

                                                                                                                                                                                                            :idea: As I've said before, I am a Painter of automobiles and a darn good one I might add. So any color you want is possible. It may not be "numbers matching" but how many MOD MINIs are? Anyway, if anyone reading is interested PM me anytime. ;-)

:smt049 R-U an Indy 500 Fan? If so, welcome to a rather small world here in good ol boy country!!! I'm probably in a very small group of hardcore fans myself having gotten bitten by the INDY bug back in "69". That's right, the very same year Mario Andretti won his only 500. And by the way, when I get a second MINI, if Indy Blue is still available by then, well, need I say more? :D

:smt017 Elegant perhaps, but Jet Black will always be "CLASSIC" just ask Jason!

:o I know the feeling! Seems I never hear from the Jet Black crowd,(if there is one). :?

:twisted: How about a bumper sticker for club members who love the Python Gang that says simply "I FART IN YOUR GENERAL DIRECTION" or perhaps "I BLOW MY NOSE AT YOU". Bodily functions are almost a prerequisite to being a Python fan Ya know. :smt031

:twisted: You Cheeky Devil, that's AWESOME!!!

:) Happy to see some regulars on the Blvd. Are any of these HRMini members? 7:30/7:45 am and 5:30/5:45 pm Mon thru Fri Yellow MC w/ what looks like daisies on the bonnet. Gold MC/B roof Denbigh Blvd same time and days, am hours only. Blue CabrioletS  w/black stripes, same am hours. And tnen theres a silver MCS with MINBIKE license plates in the evenings on Warwick East bound and a Grey MCS w/B stripes and nice wheels west bound now in tne pm. times. Always fun driving home and seeing all you guys, just wish I could pry ours away from the missus now and then ;-)

:( Sorry to hear about the delays with your service. If I'm not mistaken, at CF, if you schedule a week or two ahead, they'll promise a MINI loaner. If however you are taken by surprise and you can't give that kind of notice, you'll probably get a Toyota! ;-)

:idea: I believe the Zipper model cover is an indoor cover only.

:D CONGRADULATIONS! Bob @ CF has done it again. I seem to recall telling someone else at MINI USA that the folks at CF are no doubt, the BEST, afterall, they we're selling them back in the 60"s too! Experience is worth it all.

:D Checked the Daily Press on tuesday and found what may be something your looking for. A 1979 Austn Mini for sale in the classic section of the classifieds. It's located in West Point and the asking price is around $5K. Sorry I don't have the telephone number, but check the paper anyway and give it a look. If you have any trouble getting the ohone no. I'll see if I don't still have it in my toolbox @ work. Good Luck!

:D  :D  :D  :D Love the Red, and ain't the black roof the deepest shine you've ever laid eyes on? Now get out there and have some fun!!

:x Humbug I say. I've already dropped an e-mail to Susan about letting us in on a MINI day and if I'm the only one interested in something as sweet as this, then I'll convoy to Kings Dominion all by myself!!! Now that that's said...lets not give up so easily. Just imagine the shear number of MINIs that could be motoring down/up I95 all @ the same time...HUNDREDS,THOUSANDS, goodness knows the possibilities.  :smt003

:idea: Not that I ever plan on letting go of my MCSa, but I can tell you from experience, resale value seems to be a good deal better on a smoke free car. Afterall, who wants to drive around in a 2 ton ashtray :roll:
