Starting today, the ZHP has "daily driver" status. That's because the A/C in the Mini stopped working. I plan to take it to the shop this Friday. Hopefully it's not an expen$ive repair.

Looking good, fredo. Did you do anything special to the black trim strip across the bumper? Mine is a little sun-beaten and I noticed that yours looks better in the "after" picture.
Benno, I didn't do anything to the bumper trim. Maybe the car was freshly washed. Some years ago, I used with success "Forever Black" on my first e46. Amazing results ! I sold that car 2 years after FB was applied and the trim still looked great.
I stopped at the BMW dealer today, and casually asked my SA: "can you print the service records for my ZHP?" To my surprise, he said: "sure, no problem." Now, I have history from 2005 to 2010 ! How cool is that ?
Good deal.

Thanks, Shawn. The dealer gave me records up to 58k miles. The previous owner (SoarinZHP) bought this car at 66k miles. I don't know what was done in between, but I'm ok with that.
Strange, I could not get that when I asked at my dealer. They claimed privacy had to be respected. He did tell me the major stuff but refused to print it.
