Till we get our Cooper.

Hopefully if all goes well with the cherished tansfer we can pick up the baby tommorrow afternoon :D

Already got the clear indicators chrome side grilles (to come) and my bargain 6 disc changer:cool:

Wonder if we will get any freebies !!!

Dealing with Elaine Bell @ Dunedin she seems really nice, best deal I have had through any garage. Poor Vectra only lasted 6 weeks:(

Cant wait :p

Excellent.

Is it new or used?

What's the spec?

Point me to another thread if it's there already.

Red with black roof is a really nice combo, I'll look out for you.

I often drive through Tranent on my way to my golf club (Haddington) - some nice roads around there for your MINI e.g. Tranent to Pencaitland and on down to Gifford.

Yeah there are some great round around us, best though is the coast road from portseton throught to Aberlady :D

Think thats where the first Mini adventure is going to be, maybe take him to make some sandcastles down at Longniddry.:clown:

Agreed - great road. Take care overtaking the Sunday drivers though.

Remember to keep your eyes on the road ahead and not looking too much for other Minis to flash and toot at!:p:p:p
