    Lots of nice cars this month. Tough call, as I've met two of the owners and have seen their cars in person. In the end, going with BLU BRIT. Crashton's car is VERY similar to my first MINI. :Thumbsup:

    I happen to think the 2nd Gen MINIs rule and the Countryman is an overall winner. :) :arf: :Thumbsup:

    Now if someone wants to put a GP 1st Gen or NEW GP in my garage, I will not fight it.

    Thanks for supporting RocketDog, a very nice R60, good on trips, great in the snow and rock solid in the twisties with the Conti DWS 225s.

    I have heard that all the nice R53s are getting traded in when the 3 cyl. MINI hits the showroom. All you guys want is the burble, right. :wink:

    As I said, I was/am conflicted, so vote for RocketDog a very nice R60.

    Don

    Blu Brit is a great example of the classic MINI look with the driving lights and Mini Lite style wheels. BTW, I've followed BB on some spirited runs and I challenge anyone to stay with it....a good combination of quickness and outstanding driving! Blu Brit...Blu Brit...Blu Brit

    Need to show some love for the space blue R53! I will even say that I like Gloria's photos... some of those would make for good desktop backgrounds. I really need to get more action shots of my car.

    I really need more locals on M/A, seems I get outvoted and outfoxed by the Justa Lovers. :)

    Vote for RocketDog, Justa R60. :)
