MINI Factory Tour

It isn't an easy thing to do, but after months of trying we finally, this morning, got a confirmed reservation to take the MINI Factory Tour in Oxford England. This is really dumb but of all the activities we have planned this is going to be one of the highlights of our trip and I can't wait too see where Woodstock, Yoshi, Stitch and Jack's MINI were born.

If you would like to take the tour, more information can be found here - http://www.mini.Co.UK/about-us/factory-tour, just remember to be patient it's a very frustrating process.

Yoshi's Big Brother & New Home





Well I finally got pictures of the garage with the Race Deck Flooring, painted walls and the mounted tire racks. I also added some pictures of Yoshi's new big brother the all new 1 series M Coupe better known as Bowser....
Sorry for the bad pics.

We have one last phase to go before the garage will be complete. We'll soon be adding Gladiator Cabinets with a bench. I will post pics when we get the cabinets in and clean up the garage. Not enough time in the day, we've had the new car for approx 3 weeks and only have 600 miles on him. We've been itching to take him out for a really good twisty run. Hopefully that will be this weekend.

Getting Ready for AMVIV8


Sorry I haven't posted lately, but with moving finally done, I am now able to get ready for AMVIV8.

Are you guys going?

Here's something I've been working on, Stuck On Minis just bought an awesome Roland VersaCamm printer/cutter, we can now make your custom die cut stickers, just send us an email and a picture of what you want in eps, ai or high res jpg and we can print and cut your sticker.

See the AMVIV8 Promo sticker below:


This sticker will be contour cut around the grill badge so when you pull the sticker off you won't see the Stuck On MINIs ad.

Hope to see you in Vegas

Yoshi's New Home


Check out Yoshi's new home, well it's not quite built yet but it should be done within the next week. His old home was a small 2 car garage which was about 16w x 17l. It was a tight squeeze but we were able to get Yoshi and the Vette in it, we have to park as close to the wall as possible, then have to be careful opening the doors so we won't dent the other car. We also don't have any room in the rear for storage cuz the Vette barely fit in lengthwise.

I've always wanted a nice garage with Race Deck Flooring and some nice cabinets to house all of our car stuff. Our new garage will be 18w x 24l, even though it is only 2 feet wider, it's 8 feet longer, now we won't have to park against the wall and we shouldn't have a problem with the doors and definitely no problem with storage. We just ordered our Race Deck flooring and will also be putting in Gladiator Cabinets with an 8ft Work Bench. I can't wait until our garage is complete, that is the last thing we need to be completed before we can move in to our new house. I'll post some pics of our Garage as we add the components, my goal is to have an awesome show garage that Yoshi and our new BMW 1M will be proud to call home.

Not just another BMW

I have been BMWless since the year before last when I sold my 2005 325Ci , I've been itching to get another BMW since then. One of my favorite cars is the M3, I've wanted one since they came out in 1986, the only problem is they have gotten too big, too long and too heavy for me. So when we heard that they were going to make a 1M and that it will be roughly the same length as the original M3 we decided we had to have it. We put our name on the list at the dealership, but didn't think we would get one cuz we were number 5 on the list. Well out of the blue our motoring advisor called us to let us know that one of the guys in front of us on the list changed his mind and that we would get his allocation, which is one of the very first 1M builds. (not so sure that is a good thing though) So we now have a supposedly limited 2011 Sapphire Black BMW 1M on order and in production, with a scheduled delivery date of the 1st week of May. Ooh I can't wait to get and drive this car, it's going to be awesome. I told you it's not just another BMW, it's the new 1M.

Who's Going to MINI United? NO ONE!!!

I can't even tell you how disappointed I am but I just found out yesterday that MINI has postponed MINI United until 2012.

Wow, how can a company announce to the world that they are holding an event on a certain date and place, then decide to postpone? I guess they don't care that people made plans, bought plane tickets, rented cars, paid for hotels and took time off from work to attend their event. It's sad really that a big company like MINI can't get their act together to plan an event 2 years off from their last one and that they take their core customer base for granted. Lucky for us that we planned this trip keeping in mind that something like this might happen. Yes I'm disappointed in MINI for getting my hopes up and for taking me as a customer for granted, but we are still going to Europe, MINI United or not.

Who's Going To MINI United? We Are!!

I was so bummed that I chose not to go to MINI United last year, but I'm not going to make that mistake this year. Yahoo, not only are we going to MINI United in the South of France, but we're going to England for a week and taking the 7 Day Disney Mediterranean after that. All reservations have been made and paid for, all we have to do is wait the 200 plus days until we leave. We're going as regular attendees not as a vendor for Stuck On MINIs. We would love to be a vendor but did that all last year, and now we just want to go and enjoy the event without having to work the event.

So the question is, are you going to MINI United? We are and hope to meet some of you.
