Hi! New member from the Charlotte NC area. I just bought a 2008 "justa" Cooper in December: lightning blue with white top, bonnet stripes and mirrors, 6 speed manual, sport pkg, convenience pkg, and cold weather pkg (CarFax and my research helped me figure out that this was a lease vehicle in PA--hopefully, the cold weather features won't be used excessively down here). My trepidation regarding reliability issues and repair costs was eased a bit because there is still some factory warranty (35k miles)!

I've wanted one of these little guys since the day I saw an ad for the "new" MINI back in 2002, so it has been great finally acquiring "Morris" and motoring about town!

 

Welcome!! Be sure to check out www.tarheelminis.org if you are interested in attending any events. Enjoy Morris!
