Today I traded in my 2008 MINI Cooper S and placed an order for a 2010 Cooper S:

It’s not really a Pepper White, it only says that since that was the MINI in the slot they modified for my order. But mine was an ‘08, so why did I trade it in? Well, the dealership was buying back used MINIs and giving 120% of trade-in value, so I did some math and even though my MINI was just over a year old, for what I was offered I was able to pay off the auto loan, pay off some other debts, and still have enough for a down payment on a new MINI. They’re estimating a 6-week build time for it, so it should arrive here in early to mid-December, and will (mostly) look just like my ‘08. :) Now to think of a good name for this one…
