    @Crashton remember this sticker? You sent it to me when I bought the lights from you. I liked it so much I didn’t want to use it unless it was a very good use. I think it will go on the X1/9. It sites the car and me.

    Yes I remember those. Wish I could buy more, but the maker has gone MIA.

    It's good to have a young brain! Mine says young guy too, but my body can no longer keep up. I'll keep on trying.... ;)

    Nice addition to the car stable. Yes, the MB needs to be gone, unless you have grown attached to the cushy interior and soft ride. The X19 is a good daily and autox car plus a clean one for the C&Cs you have in your area. I know how everyone feels about age, being 76 and just getting a visit to my hip doctor, I am glad for a nice tall Audi Q5, road trips are better in the Q5. We still have the 11 Countryman, it has become the dog car and grocery getter. Put about 4K into getting the engine oil leaks fixed, new timing chain etc. So far might be around for another year or so.

    Enjoy the new car @MCS02!

    Well nothing Mini to report. Sense I don't have one and my wife's Mini is running good. I did get headers and exhaust for the X. It will be in the 100's the next few days so I don't plan on installing them till it cools a little. It should sound better than the stock exhaust with the cat still on it. Not sure it will add much HP to the already astronomical 90 it already has. But as @Crashton said its fun to drive slow cars fast.

    I can understand not working on the X as my wife and I were in south Alabama ten days ago and the heat was oppressive.

    I sanded primed and painted the headers today. It was hot out!
