As you can see from our Blog, MU would like to welcome some new international faces to the club. ;D We know a lot of Mini enthusiasts are visiting the UK this summer to coincide with Mini50 events, and we'd like to offer a focal point at the shows to our friends to help them feel part of celebrations You do realise you'll all be drinking cider and singing along to the Wurzels by the time we've finished with you...

You incorrectly spelled "realize". Does this mean we're going to have to teach you a whole new language?

You can try...
Mind you, I'd like to see you try and spell ANYTHING with 6 pints of scrumpy inside you !

I am one of the new international members-thanks for your welcome! I have know Alex and Suzy for a fair number of years now as they visit the USA often to attend our shows and it is always good to see them. My wife and I visit the UK once a year and love to attend shows and autojumbles while we are there. I have an extreme Mini habit and have several in various states of repair as well as a few that I can just jump in and drive. Looking forward to learning more about Minis and their owners from your forum! Eric - South Carolina, USA

Eric, I really think you need to post a couple of pictures of your "extreme Mini habit"... Extreme doesn't even come close !!

Hi guys. Is it ok for me to post on this forum? It's okay with me! But then I'm just a new guy here. I don't even have an extreme Mini habit. I've only got just the one Elf. Well, along with SCUM, an Elf and 'alf.

As long as you tow the line Dean, and blatantly tout your wares here !!
Wonder what a Dooderised MU log would look like...

I want to go where you go when you visit the UK. Not with you, mind, but near you so I can watch.

Zip - I like your link, made me chuckle. I can promise you we are a civilised country to visit. Taunton itself has not one but TWO McDonalds and Subways!

Welcome Mart - did you sort out your paint colour issues in the end ? I've now realised that I have some body panels in the colours you were thinking of...

Hi Alex, i found the Yukon Gray LQS color under LandRover. it looks a bit darker than the usual but then again i've never seen a mini that color for real, only on pictures on the web so... i saw the painted doors before the clear coat last friday and i really liked it so even if its not spot on i dont mind... it should be all done in the next couple of weeks! cheers

Just a note to say "Hi" and see if my avatar and sig line are working. Glad to be part of a board not tied to a commercial enterprise...
Darn, can't seem to get my avatar to work, no matter how I try to re-size it. Any hints?
EDIT: got it figured out.

Son Robin (another Minis Unlimited member) is driving to California (LA) from Kansas next month - in a hire car, not his Mini (which is tucked up here). If there are any Mini celebrations in California next month, let us know and maybe he'll be able to attend.

Hi Kristina, good to see you again! so, is the mini still running good? did you decide against selling it? Still running great ;D. I got permission to take the "for sale" sign off. It's obvious to my mechanic that I'm happy and enjoying driving Mongrel so he's mine for awhile. WooHoo. Besides, I need something to drive while sporting my Dooderwear . This seems like it will be a friendlier place to hang out. Thanks for the invite Alex.
