Hey folks, newb here...
Currently in the market for a mini, where didi you guys find yours? Aside from the normal eBay/Autotrader/Craigslist avenues, of course..

Thanks in advance, looking forward to modding with you guys

MINI dealerships are a good start! I picked up mine at a Lexus/Toyota used lot. There are a few for sale in the Marketplace here as well. Good luck!

I got hooked when I saw one for sale at my Land Rover dealer. It was the Monte Carlo special. By the time I got back with my wife, It was sold. So I had to order a new one!

The NAM Marketplace is a great place to look at.
The MINI's there are well cared for and maintained.
You want to get the car's history, that almost as important as the car.
