  1. Now, I've never heard of 'skip passes', but will ask! We'll only be considered a 'group' in KD's eyes if we have 15+ people. So, in an effort to get that many, I've also posted on the CM3 and HRMINI sites to get some feelers ... we'll see.
  2. <p><span style="color:#800080;">OK, Every1,</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Finally decided on a date that doesn't coincide w/anything else (so far)!</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="color:#800080;">Let's hope the weather cooperates so we can get our ride and rollercoaster on! Please RSVP so we can have an idea of how many are interested and (hopefully) get the group rate. Details to follow ... :motor:</span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong><span><span style="text-decoration:underline;">UPDATE</span></span></strong><strong><span>: Changed the date to 6/26, since there were only about five or six people interested (including HRMINIs), and there may be another event on the 12th. </span></strong></p>

  4. Ali: DCMM duties fulfilled ... check! We missed u, tho. Brian: Thanks 4 heading me in the right direction, and it was nice 2 see u and every1 else! I had a gr8 time! Looking 4wa
  5. Saw a PW in my rearview mirror this evening; I waved, he didn't. Saw another silver cabrio this am; I waved, she didn't. Saw 1 of those new blue (Horizon, perhaps?) MINIs on the way home 2day; I waved, they didn't. :bawling: I'll keep tryin', tho ... :wavey:
  6. I love the look of these wheels and, if any1 is tryna get rid of 'em 4 a reasonable price, please PM me! Wheels found and installed! Woo-hoo!!!
  7. Took my granddaughter 2 Hoffman Center Theaters in Alexandria yesterday, and parked 1 car away from a CR MINI w/white bonnet stripes.
  8. Kewl; is any1 going 2 the autox event @ Bowie Baysox Stadium 'til 4p afterwards?
  9. Well, that's interesting. When Scoopie had her mishaps, my ins. co. (Progressive) had their body/repair shop do all the work (which was excellent, btw). When parts needed to be ordered, they got the correct pieces/parts and installed them, as well. Maybe State Farm has that same level of expertise w/their shop; i.e., it's not just a body shop. Just wondering ...
  10. Wow! LOL! Must've come from some1 w/a whole passel of kids (& secretly wondering Why, WHY did I do this 2 myself, Lawd?), all the while fightin' w/their carseats/strollers & diaper bags, drivin' a minivan, couldn't stand the sight of ONE MORE MINI in their midst & noticed how happy the driver was, and just couldn't take it one ... more ... cotton-pickin ... minute! :rofl: The comments are hilarious!
  11. Carman, yes, he was a mess afterwards, but he did a damned fine job in spite of it all! :top:
  12. ROFL @ Ali! I know, girl ... we're meeting in Ashburn still, as far as I know. Since I work out this way already, that won't be a problem. I'm just happy 2 see more folks signed up! The last coffee meet was in R'ville, and there were o
  13. Well, of course I'm closer to the Fairfax location, but have no problem going to Ashburn. If you decide to change it, that'd be great; if not, that's cool, 2.
  14. That's right where I work! Technically, I'm just off Waples Mill. I haven't driven the whole neighborhood
  15. Has anyone tried them? They said they service MINIs, but I don't recall hearing of them before. They're located on Eisenhower Ave. in Alexandria; here's their site if interested. They also have a location in Fort Washington, MD! That's much closer for me!
  16. ROFL! Sorry about the glare, Craig--it was a cellphone thing. Scoopie likes shiny things.
  17. Scoopie & I thank u very much! :embarassed:
  18. Oh, yes, and they're gorgeous! I love 'em! Here's a pic of one of 'em I took w/my cell--Scoopie's 2 dirty now, but after she gets her very first detail this Saturday, I'll take lots of new pics and post 'em in my gallery.
  19. OK, guys; thanks for the input. Just wasn't sure if there'd be an advantage w/it being three pieces vs. two or not ... still on the fence about this, but will let you know if I plunge in!
  20. Scoopie has new xenon eyes, so I'm selling her OEM halogens. They're in great condition other than a couple of tiny rock pits on the chrome portion (damned potholes and the vehicles that kick up debris!). There's also one screw missing that can easily be found at Home Depot. Selling the pair for $100. PM me if you're interested! Thanks! Violet & Scoopie
  21. Hello all you modbugs out there ... I'm considering this 1 for Scoopie: http://new.minimania.com/web/Item/NME5041/InvDetail.cfm. Has any1 installed 1 of these on their R53 MINIs? If so, how do u like it so far? Do u change your belt every year, as well? Are there other like-priced options out there I should consider? All comments/suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
