Threw on the GP2 belly pan last night-

 

You didn't throw it on, I see tools right there!

 

After 2 years of owning my 2005 R52 S I hit a mileage milestone...

 

I ordered mine!

 

How is that even possible?! Is your odometer broken?!

 

Lifted the bonnet, checked the earl & other fluids. Closed bonnet & went for a short drive.

 

Put 50 miles on my Dark Helmet twin this morning. I'm lucky to drive it once every couple of weeks, can't stay off the Indian.

 

Ethel paid a visit to South Hampton England today. She was not able to get off the ship since it was a one way flow of new mini's headed on board. Checked on her a few minutes ago and the MV Integrity she is taking her cruise on had just cleared the Isle of Wright and was steaming for open water on Ferris wat to Baltimore?

Only a few more weeks until she arrives !!

 

Had to go for groceries today so I took it out and scrubbed the rust off the rotors. First time I've moved it in a week. I'm taking it about 30 miles tomorrow to Outback Steakhouse. My Grandson wants to buy a steak for me and his stepdad as a late Father's Day present. Everything was too crowded today.

 

I'm still waiting for my production number to show on the MINI website. How do you track the shipping vessel once it's loaded?

 

If it loads to a wallenius Whilhelmson they scan every car by vin# arriving to their yard loading unloading etc. you go to tracking on The site below and key the full 17 digit vin in the cargo ID and you are good to go. About 1/3 sail on K-line. If it doesn't show up on the above site while awaiting transport them when it goes enroute just look at the K-line schedule about 5 days back and that's most likely your ship.

You will get a vin on he tracking sire once it goes scheduled for production.

Drove her into work today. Once there, headed to the Amsoil.com and tried to crack $100 to get free shipping... I landed at $95 including shipping. Bast*rds. I ordered oil for my next oil change and MTF as I'll be changing that at the same time.

 

I went to the garage and dusted and removed all the pollen on mine. Damn she looks good.

 

Mother Nature detailed mine for me again last night. Taking it to lunch in a few minutes and will be giving my Grandson a ride home afterwards via some back country roads. Beautiful days for some twisties while everyones at work. Gotta love retirement! :devil:

 

Now get in and go drive her.

 

Got a puncture fixed. Discount Tire did it for free, as they do.

CD

 

I'd go with it.

:biggrin5:

 

Finalized the deal for my new interior. It will be the stock color gray and Red inserts...pretty damm close to chili red. The headrests will be red and gray and the rear seat delete will be gray with a red insert. BTW...does anyone have a pattern or measurements for the plywood I am going to need to make the base? The side bolsters will be stiffer and the material is...leather. It will be about 2 weeks in the making.
