S is for Sweetness
They say time flies when you’re having fun and I’m a believer. The past six months have flown by faster than the six weeks I waited to get my new Mini. I test drove my first Mini last April and right then I knew it was the car for me. A few weeks later, I ordered one of my own custom built by Mini to meet my specifications. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
My new ride is a 2007 Mini Cooper S, for sweetness, in Laser Blue Metallic with a black roof and bonnet stripes. It has the sport package which includes the on-board computer, alloy crown spoke wheels, run-flat tires, and xenon headlamps. I also ordered it with automatic air conditioning, chrome line exterior trim, anthracite headliner, and fluid silver interior trim.
Since I picked up my Mini on June 6th, I have put nearly 5,000 miles on the odometer. Although, most of the miles were accumulated in a one week period. Trips to North Carolina, Ohio, then South Carolina totaled more than 2,800 miles. This is a considerable feat since I rarely drive more than 500 miles in an entire year. I have to be careful not to put too many miles on the car, especially since it’s just plain fun to drive a Mini.
