My Mini Love

March 15, 2009 · WCC Administr@tr · 10 Comments

smlminicooperslogo5x57707st-2321934Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend and are ready for a new week. My weekend was great, especially with a new toy I purchased. With our upcoming move in the heart of downtown Chicago, we originally planned on selling our car and relying on public transportation. When we went to the dealership to get an appraisal and sell it, my husband noticed that the car I’ve been coveting for years happened to be on their lot. It had all the bells and whistles I wanted (which is hard to come by) so we ended trading the car instead!

I fell completely in love and purchased a black 2006 Mini Cooper S. For years thath I’ve been attending auto shows, I’ve always made it a point to get into one and have a picture taken. I’m still in shock that I have one now!

This is me at the 2007 Auto Show in Milwaukee:picture064-3691328

    Yay for MINI owners!!! We have one too and LOVE it! We are going to splurge later this year and get the Clubman S… have you seen one? I wasn’t sure about it until we went about a month ago and got in it and test drove one- I absolutely love it. I can’t wait for the new one…
