Hi All,

I just got my first Mini, a 2005 black/dark silver Cooper S. It came with 30,000 tender miles and its a blast. I've been Mini curious since the beginning, but managed to keep it under control. With a new job and a long commute I knew I needed something with better mileage. I was filling my BMW 735 (5-speed) every 4 days at $60-70 per tank. To get to the point, my birthday was last weekend and on Saturday, my wife announced we were going car shopping for a Mini. We found one and it was my present. After one test drive I was hooked.

I don't know why I waited so long. Of course, now the money I save in gas will be going to goodies for the S.

Welcome to the world of MINIs. Glad to have you on board!!

Yeah I told everyone that I replaced the Jeep with a MINI to save money, but I can't seem to stop buying new gadgets for it.
Oh well, so much for saving money..

Welcome!

 

rgc0233,

I understand that you're "new" to owning a MINI? But is it you that's "old" or is it the MINI that's "old" (i.e. used)?

Whichever, welcome to NAM and to MINI's! From one old fart to another! Maybe.

 

Just got ours too - I'm already having fun - ENJOY!

 

rgc0233 - Welcome to NAM and congrats on your MINI - hope you enjoy it!

Xbass - congrats on your MINI, also.

 

Yeah, its me that's old. The Mini is not even broken in yet. Can't wait to head out to work today!
