Frequent contributor Dave Bunting will be the ruler of all things MotoringFile for the next couple of days as I head down south for some Dragon slaying. Dave is well versed in all things MINIs having had four years of ownership under his belt. He’s a founding member of one of the first MINI clubs in the nation, MINI5280 and is known for taking some of the nicest automotive related photos you’ll ever see.
Dave is also the proud owner of the most rare color combos ever officially offered, Solar Red and Pure Silver.
MF Readers meet Dave. Dave meet the MF Readers.
Now I’m off to do one more coat of Zaino before leaving….
Hey Dave!
Awesome choice!
hey dave – i’ve always admired your work – nice to have you around.
cheers – drew
Hey Dave.
Oooh, maybe you’ll share certain behind-the-scenes stuff from Sunday in Sausalito? 🙂
I don’t have any skills. Chicks dig skills. Num-chuck skills. Secret gov’t ninja skills. MINI photography skills. Gosh!
Thanks for the keys Gabe. I’ll do my best to return MF to you in one piece. 😀
J/C: It’s 74 and sunny in Sausalito 😉
(Psst, now that the teacher’s gone, let’s mess with the substitute!) Uh, can me and Lulu have a hall pass, Mr. Bunting, please? We havta go to the …uh…library, yeah! 😉

I may be new, but I’m not green. 😉
Way to go Dave! Looking forward to your input and glad a fellow C3 club member is so well respected in the MINI scene. Keep up the good work!
Dang! Yup, the babysitter is always tougher than the parents. 😉 Welome aboard, Dave, Motoringfile couldn’t be in better hands!

Don’t trust Dave… he traded in an MCS for a <strong>base</strong> Cooper. 😉
I would prefer the “Off Campus Pass!” So I wouldn’t have to run from Coach Hat or Coach Akerman!
LTZMTOR – Ya still gotta get past Sister Tiny, and even tho she’s the size of a bull African Elephant, that nun can reach out with a metal ruler and whack ya like nobody else! And she runs a lot faster when she spots ya trying to ditch. Go out behind the softball field thru the oleanders, and watch out for the campus cop that hangs around the girl’s locker room there – he’s sorta creepy, but he’s real sneaky. Good Luck, sport!
BCNU,

Dave, you still on for Streets on Saturday?
yes, I’m still on for Saturday. We have at least three MINIs coming up from L.A. for it.
Dave – tell me about the wheels on your Solar Red MC?
They are 15×7 Konig Rewinds, anthracite with a polished lip.
Congratulations Dave! Looking forward to seeing you and your Solar Red MINI in Colorado at MINIs In The Mountains , sponsored by <a href="http://www.MINI5280.org" rel="nofollow ugc">http://www.MINI5280.org</a> and <a href="http://www.NorthAmericanMotoring.com" rel="nofollow ugc">http://www.NorthAmericanMotoring.com</a> this Aug 10-13, 2006 (shameless plug!).

Quick! Someone switch name tags with me! 😉
