    Added GP trim to the rear of my R53. Looks much nicer than the stock MCS trim. Will post up a pic in a few days.

    The last two day included a coffee meet with the local MINI club, which included much peering under hoods and discussing mods.

    And an outdoor hotrod show.

    I was parked near the Rods, but not in the show area. I think my MINI got as many looks and questions as the really cool old hot rods there!

    Added some new windshield washer fluid on Sunday. Rolled on the gas in 3rd gear to redline a couple of times this morning, I still love driving this car.

    Had a great trackday on Saturday that induced grins. Unloaded from the track day Sunday and drove to a friends place grinning. Drove to work today with that same grin... :biggrin5:
