Howdy

Hi. Been driving my Mini since February, an 02 S. Had 33k on it then and it now has 51k. Makes for a fun commute to work and back on 35 miles of back road. Been floating around on a few forums but haven't settled on one yet, maybe I will stay here.

That gas station is great.

Back road commuting sounds like fun. I just looked at a map for Temple, TX and it seems like all of your back roads are called "farm to market road ##" Seems like more fun than the straight roads around here, though.

Welcome to NAM.

Welcome! Temple's a great town. I used to drive through it a lot and I could always count on y'all for traffic updates on 35. Love the DS/W combo! It's always been one of my favorites.

Welcome to this site. You'll find a wealth of information here, probably more than you'll ever use, but it's a one-stop shop for mods, inquiries and overall information on a great little bimmer...wait, did I say that?

Temple, Texas huh? Traveled through there many times making the trek from Waco to Austin. Didn't like the DPS on that stretch of I35!

Welcome.

DONT SPEED THROUGH TEMPLE!!! Yeah, I used to work off I35 at a pharmacy and on my lunch break I would sit in my jeep and watch people get pulled over.

Yeah, been doing a lot of searching thanks to various little problems. Nothing major. I have a jeep so I am used to problems. The car is fun, I love it and so does everyone that rides with me.
