Hi! Potential Newbie Here

I've been an admirer of the Mini Cooper since they originally came out and now I'm finally getting around to hopefully purchasing one. Got really close to a deal on a 2012 Cooper Hardtop base, but things went a different way.

Figured I should begin scouring the threads here to learn as much as I can while I continue to search for a used Cooper in the Greater Nashville area. So much to learn about between different generations and different models.

Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself and I hope to be a bonafide member with a Mini of my own very soon.

Keep searching and you'll find the one for you! Took me searching for a while, but the perfect R53 showed up on Craigslist at just the right time! and just my $.02, but hunt down a MCS, not just a base, there is nothing like listening to forced induction whine Either way, you'll want to sleep in your new baby once you find her

Thanks for the welcome Mini2na and Hue Jazz!

Well, on Saturday I found a Mini that I just couldn't pass up. I ended up purchasing a 2009 Mini Cooper S Clubman in Pepper White!



Now I'm pouring through the threads to learn more about my new baby and just bought a Cravenspeed phone mount.
