Welcome aboard, and congrats on your purchase! I acquired my MINI after a long period of waiting, wanting, and lusting too, so I can say I know how you feel.

My advice is threefold:

1) read through the First Gen forums here
2) find a good local independent MINI mechanic in your area (if you're not mechanically inclined yourself, which I'm not)
3) find a local MINI club and join in the fun

Drive 'er in good health, and Happy Motoring!

PS: final piece of advice is to wave at other fellow MINI motorers

Welcome...and if you're not mechanically inclined, you will learn to be very quickly if you don't want to empty your wallet.
