TGGRRR (Ali) replied to john171's topic in Maintenance & Modifications
When mine went a few years ago it was covered under my extended warranty. I never got into it with Passport regarding the Emissions warranty -

I suspect this will be a smaller crowd so bring your friends along. I remember back when I was in the military I had a period of time where I literally got 7 flats over the course of a few months (4 were at the same time when someone pulled my valve stems out) I got REALLY good at changing the tires on my Chevette. It's not hard to do and is important to know if you're in a situation where you can't call for help. Another time I came out to the garage and saw liquid dribbling from under Tigger, it smelled and felt like oil. I was able to check the oil, see it was low, buy a quart to keep him happy and got to the dealership without damaging the engine. If your oil light comes on you should know how to determine if the oil is low or is there some other problem triggering the light.

I'm pretty sure a photographer friend of mine is coming with his Mercedes, be nice I know you guys will be, but mostly I wanted you to know so that we don't lose him as we navigate through the city. I think it's an SLK, a 2 seater convertible, his name is Bill Funny how I introduce the car first

You try that and I'll be over there hugging you and declaring what a wonderful friend you are. Then ask loudly why you didn't also bring your new BMW MINI with you too.

Do you guys go with your newer MINIs? Maybe we could all meet up and arrive together?

Meet & Greet at MINI of Annapolis - Jan 25, 2014
TGGRRR (Ali) replied to Poison Ivy's topic in Events
Great turn out, we're still at lunch. -
I got a wave today, I got a wave!!! It was a pure silver 1st gen cabrio, right at the start of the Memorial Bridge. I was so excited :itsme: Saw 2 other MINIs who didn't wave but one did!!!! I was thinking that we have thousands of MINIs in this area and only a few hundred here in the club. So statistically most of those MINIs just aren't going to wave. When we find one that does, it's like a prize in a lottery. The joy!!!!

I hear that coupled with C3M there will be around 18 people. Thinking of just hitting the Red Hot and Blue across the street if we wind up with a large lunch crowd -
