Hello all.

hey guys and girls. I’m josh. I’m new to the world of Mini Cooper. My son and I wanted something fun to project. And our new to us mini came up on offer up for 1500$. We picked up an 06 cooper s JWC hard top in blue. We’re really excited to enjoy it and can’t wait to share our ups and downs with it.

Yeah, we just got our first round of parts to bring it up to par so we’re excited to get started. Starting off with a new cat/header oil pan and oil filter housing gasket, brakes all around and tail light gaskets. All good stuff for a kid to help on.
