New member, from Scotland (hope thats ok?)

As the title says, I am a newly registered member but I am from Scotland and mot North America and I hope thats ok with you guys? My name is Ali (zimbo) I love minis and am currently on my second one, which is in mid stages of being modified if and when money allows it to be

It is an Astro Black 2006 mini ONE which If I recall you guys don't get? and the only reason I have this instead of a Cooper or an 'S' is because the cost of fuel over here is rediculous, other wise I would love to have an S, especially a GP..

I see a lot of you guys are into modifying your cars so hopefully I'll pick up a lot of tips from you guys who know what you are doing when it comes to this sort of thing.

Thanks zimbo

nice roof graphics. I also like the bling on the side of your car in the picture you took at the carnival...

Welcome to NAM, enjoy the forums. Yes, we do not get the One or the diesel which would be nice.

Pictures and some information on your local clubs would be great to share.

Enjoy and drive safe.
