White Roof Radio #170

mini2nd night with the new theme music, what do you think?

We roll into Gabe’s R56 talk with his new theme. What do you think? He brought his MINI home and parked it in the garage. The End. After I reminded him that he only bought a MINI and didn’t win an award, he gives us his initial thoughts.

As you would imagine, so far, he is loving his R56! You can read his first week review at Motoringfile.com here.

And I get to talk a little bit about alternative fuels. I think it was about 45 seconds, but didn’t really check the time. Don’t worry, I’ll keep on hammering the guys until they have no choice but to let me talk about it!

Todd’s out this week moving, so Gabe and I are going to take advantage of that and do another video show. Maybe. For those of you that caught the last, you know what a nightmare it was. I’ve been playing with ustream lately and they have made some great improvements in the software, so it should be a much simpler process. Watch this space for more information. If we do video, it will be Thursday at 6:30PM PST/8:30PM CST/ 9:30 EST.

We’ve had a few new reviews on iTunes, thank you! If you are one that hasn’t done that, and feel so inclined, just click over to the WRR page at iTunes (link below). Feel free to click on that subscribe button a few times too. Just want to get WRR above the Autoblog podcast again, and see if the extra subscribes still works.

    At Whiteroofradio.com it is. It was getting hit by spammers pretty hard, so I had to shut it down. I’ll try to bring it back online as soon as possible.

    Of course, you could always use the contact form at Motoringfile. It works great!

    Still no JCW suspension? Mine will arrive next week. I’m getting from a dealership in florida; the motoring advisor ordered it for himself, but had already installed aftermarket springs and swaybars, so decided he didn’t need the JCW kit, so he’s selling it to me for the price he paid. Also he said there’s only 4 kits in the country cause JCW allocates only a certain amount.

    Must admit that I prefer the old theme music, I find that i turn down the new one when it comes on
