New NC Mini owner

Hello all. My name is Jason and I just purchased a 2003 Dinan R53. I have always liked the look of these cars and after driving it, LOVED the way it drove. I am picking it up today and I'll post pics as soon as I can.

Actually, your Dinan S is a R53 because it is a hardtop. If it was a convertible, than it would be a R52. Regardless, you have a nice ride and those Dinan OEM parts only make it better!

Thanks for the correction I'm still getting used to the different #'s (52, 53, 56....etc)
