We Got a new MINI

We needed a small car to pull behind our 27' RV, and after much looking, decided on the MINI. We got it in Greenville, SC and I have really enjoyed driving it. It takes me back to my younger days when I was driving a Fiat Spider. Here's a picture, although it's incomplete because it doesn't yet have the baseplate installed for hooking up the tow bar from our RV.

Congrats on the MINI purchase, I think you will find that the MINI will outdo the Fiat in every way possible, happy motoring.

What baseplate/tow bar are you going to use? I've always used Blue Ox, and I'll have to check that they make one for the Cooper. I've been using our Jeep as a toad, but I'll have to think about the Cooper.

I'm getting a Blue Ox base plate since I already have the Blue Ox tow bar. BTW, I traded in my Jeep toad on the MINI.
