What did you do to your MINI today?

Petro Canada built a network across the Trans-Canada highway using the Federal government grants. At $0.50/min the real world charging is like 40kW and not the 200kW+ as advertised.

 

Yes I don't like the total number of individual dispensers as that could be misleading (i.e. a 12 supercharger location vs a 2 CCS site). Number of locations is better to see the regional spread overall.

I didn't include Level 2 charging public sites either.

 

I live in Marion County, Florida. Population is approximately 400,000, and is the largest county in the state - about the size of Rhode Island. Not a single non-Tesla public DC fast charger.

 

Cleaning the ICE S

 

Have you got a Union Jack on the wall?

 

Yes. My wife and I are total Anglophiles

 

How do you like the Chemical Guys polishing pads?

 

The pads are fine for my use. If I were doing something serious I’d maybe buy the Lake Country pads. I only had white or orange pads in my cabinet today

 

Good enough for an ICE car.

 

Pretty much lol

 

Got around to wrapping the trim ring to match the dash panels. Oof, not an easy wrap, lots of heat and stretching needed to get around the curves. Undecided if I'm gonna cut out all the little rectangles for the ring light...

 

Does anyone pay attention to that ring? I have it set to display battery charge, but I never look at it. You did a great job, don't mess it up with your Exacto.

 

Yea apparently my wife lol. I'm leaning towards not cutting. Wife likes the light but I feel like this looks so much better and if that's the sacrifice for getting rid of piano black then it is what it is.

 

I do....

The only thing I did today was to reset the warning for maintenance. I will take mine in sometime mid/end-Feb or so to swap back to my favorite tires and have them do the 2 year check. I took delivery of my car more end of Jan 2021 so this popped up about 3 weeks before I expected

 

What information do you have your ring set to display?

 

Depends on my mood truly. Right now I have it rotating through ambient lighting colors. Sometimes speed. I like fun though.

 

#teamdiscolights on mid mode for me. If there was Sport+ I would do that, but I dislike Sport mode.

 

I liked sports mode more on my F55S I had. Mid seems just fine to me and not sure why the difference. Maybe I'm more used to throttle response for breaking now, but really no idea why.

 

After I got my ///MPPK installed on my F32 the whole steering feel was magically solved! Sport+ mode would also adjust the dampeners, but there is none for the SE (I think it's on the 2022+ ICE S and JCW).

Mid mode feels the most natural for steering and throttle response.
