    Going batty. Working long hours from home. No time to get out and drive much. In fact, it sounds like we might get locked down soon. In a moment of "what do I do now?", I found a magnet sheet and cut 3" circle and stuck this sticker that came in the mail the last time I renewed my membership. My car will wear it when they let me out and allow me to cross the border again.

    With it on the grill badge holder, my car should be good for an extra 10th of a second, right?

    Wow, aren't YOU the bluebird of happiness? M/A, I thought, was a column for ALL Mini owners...both "Classic" and "New".

    The pot calling the kettle black? I found it amusing, but I'm not quite right. If that had a German flag I could run one on my GTI. :D

    Actually, it should have been a British and Welsh flag.

    The MK1 new MINI has an engine built in Brazil by an American company. The MK2 new MINI has a French engine. Man that badge is going to need a bunch more flags. ;)

    I still have the stock JCW muffler. Mark had deleted the resonator before I bought it from him. I have thought about getting a different exhaust.

    Nice of your tire guy to do that for you. The place I use won't do it due to COVID restrictions.

    Dave... that engine just doesn't look right without the black cauliflower-like growth of oil and road dust all over the front of the block! Looks great!

    Damn...there go my plans to buy the high end Acura. I sure wouldn't want my new car to be labeled "a crap can of a car"! I guess I'll spend my stimulus money elsewhere.

    That isn't an Acura so no worries for you. What it is is the unholy union of Isuzu & Honda. Isuzu supplied the crap can & Honda stuck the H on the grille. :Dead:
