MINI Swim Anyone?

Caught in the recent rains in New Zealand is this lonely, Liquid Yellow MINI, desperately doing the dog paddle to get back to shore.

Now we know Gabe isn’t a fan of LY, but even that tough Chicagoan will feel sorry for this little guy!

The Party Just Got Better!

The MINI Vaughan West (Toronto) launch party on March 31 that I mentioned in an earlier post just got a lot better! Believe it or not, if you mention WhiteRoofRadio to Motoring Advisor Cosmo this Saturday you’ll get $500 off a new MINI. Special for WRR fans only!

(FYI – you have to tell him before you negotiate your purchase price that you’re a WRR listener).

This dealer is fantastic! They even created a special MINI Canada-like themed e-vite. Check it out at http://www.minivaughanwest.ca/2007mini

6 test drive MINIs are going to be available, so everyone will get time behind the wheel. And I’ll bet the co-pilots won’t be slouches, either!

This will be a real launch party, not some dumb champagne swilling affair, but a real driving experience. See you there.

AMVIV recap

We are going to start with the recap, and pretty much go from here.

Gabe, Todd and db do a short recap of the weekend. Ok, db was oddly quiet, but he got to bed a little after his bedtime last night after the banquet and was having what we shall call, a rough morning.
