Last Friday, Todd and I were invited to check out one of the latest MINI Cooper dealers on the East Coast; Otto’s MINI of Exton. They used to be up the road in Westchester, but had the chance to take over this fantastic space and make the home for MINIs in their area.
11+ service bays, one of the largest showrooms I have even seen at a MINI dealer and a lot so big, I thought the VDC was contracting with them to store MINIs fresh from Oxford!
Everyone we met was great! Very excited about the new store and very excited about continuing to work with Philly MINI and their local community. And, they are also excited to be able to start selling this in the very near future.
We had a great time if you couldn’t tell! If you get the chance, definitely go over to Otto’s MINI to check out the new space. And, of course, don’t forget to let them know that White Roof Radio sent you!

Todd got a great interview with Dr. Kay Segler, MINI Brand Manager Worldwide, at the Detroit Auto Show this past week. Dr. Kay was in a great mood talking with Todd about all great things MINI, including hints of a possible reboot of the JCW MINI GP.

Todd just found some details about the upcoming MINI Takes the States event. The dates are July 4-15 and it will be a cross country trip from east to west. Route details, events and other information is not yet available.
MINI Takes the States is a giant, bi-annual, road trip put on by MINIUSA. It started in 2006 as a way to celebrate the MINI Cooper JCW GP. It was such a huge hit that it has been repeated in 2008 and 2010, both of which were great events!
Stay tuned. Todd is in Detroit at the NAIAS and is getting some great interviews. Expect more exclusives very very soon!
