    Drove to the local dealership to pick up a couple of pieces of trim to replace stuff broken when my windshield got replaced. Sneaky tech did a good job hiding the evidence until I was troubleshooting something else. Gotta watch those guys like a hawk... I didn't. I grilled him up front and he claimed to have done lots of MINIs and to know what he was doing... oh, well.

    While there, walked the lot and spotted the exact Countryman I would buy, if I were to buy one... doh.... but I really don't want a Prince engine... But I really liked it....

    Got to stretch the MINI legs for a change. Went to dinner with other Mid-Ohio folks. On the way there and back once clear of traffic it was able to give it some welly.

    Washed the car last night.... I think it was around 40-45 degrees? Not too cold.
    No way I was gonna drive Ryu all filthy when the rest of the week is going to be sunny :ihih:

    At lunch I took the long way and hit the highway... gave Ryu an Italian tune up :devil:
    Damn I love driving my car :Thumbsup:

    Washed and waxed. Getting ready for MOM donuts on saturday. Can't have a scrubby looking car when we go kick tires.
