Hi,

I'm new to the MINI community. I just ordered an 06 BRG/B MCS and can't wait for it to arrive! They say it'll arrive sometime in December. This weekend, the online tracking system gave it a VIN and has it "scheduled for production", so it's finally moving forward (yay!! )

Oh the anticipation!!

David S here, new to NAM. I have a '68 Mini that needs some work. Any good references in the OH, KY or WV region? I have brother in Atlanta and can go that far if needed. Thanks for any input.

Hello all!

I understand that there are quite a few posts...if not entire conversations that involve myself... (OmToast's b/f :smile: )

So I figured it was high time to join the mini forum so that I could "defend" myself if necessary! (not to mention OmToast decided to join my own forum... )

Anyways...just saying hi!

 

hi my name is manny. planning on getting an older mini. at the moment i have an 2001.5 audi s4. nice to meet everybody

 

Hi. I am Yucca's wife. I joined much much after him (very recently).

Hi just wanted to say hello to everyone. Purchased an 04 MCS a couple of months ago. Have had a blast on the twisties and participated in 2 autocrosses already. Am planning on several mods for next years autocross season, so will try to learn as much as possible on this sight before actually doing mods. Bye for now.:smile:

 

Hi All,

I am new to the fourm. I have a 04 IB/W MCS. Glad to meet other Mini owners.

 

Hello All,

I just purchased an 02 Electric Blue MCS. It is totally tricked out with many goodies including, painted aero kit, H&R coilovers, Supersprint Exhaust, and other personal touches I have added in the month I have owned it.

I look forward to chatting with many of you in the months to come.

Hello all, i am new to this forum.
waiting for my mc to arrive, the waiting is making me crazy!

 

I heard about this site for awhile now and i dont know why it took me so long to sign up ... I have an 04 MCS Indi Blue with Black Roof and black bonnet stripes, it has magnaflow exhaust and soon to be Cobalt cold air intake as soon as i find time to install it. Not sure if you all have heard but no more TMMZ for a lot of us its time for something new...

Sounds Exciting!

 

Just stopping in to say hello.

I'm not a mini owner but I've been a fan of the minis, classic and new, for awhile. I plan to get a mini in the future but right now I've got a project involving a modified mini in mind. Actually that's what brought me here. I've been searcing around to see how extreme some people have gone to see what may be possible with one of these cars. I've been playing around with the idea of a two seater mini and I've been looking for technical details to wrap my head around.

 

Hi all,
New to the forum. I'm not a mini-owner yet, just a fanatic with a dream. If all goes well I will be ordering my PW/B MCS at Mini of St. Louis this spring. I'm still speccing and will be doing a lot of research here and at mini2.com, let me know if you have any advice or if you just want to talk about your babies.

Oh, and I'm going to the UK in March, so I'm psyched up to tour the Oxford plant and meet some of our Euro brothers and sisters.

peace,
MC
St. Louis, MO

 

Love my Mini!

 

Hi Ya'all as we say in the South/Georgia to be exact. Wanted to introduce myself and my soon to be mini...Im jrepetto, live in Georgia, western side I am awaiting the arivial of a MC 06 PW/Blk Prem package, Anthracite Trim, leatherette/blk seats, 3spoke w/multifunction steering wheel, and a few others...It is currently on board the "Freedom" which should be docking any time today in Baltimore, and the onto Charleston S.C. by 12/16/05...Hopefully I should take delivery shortly after leaving the CVC....a couple of hours drive to Atlanta/Dealer maybe within a week or so of arriving at the CVC....that might be wishful thinking though....I can't stand all this waiting...I shouldn't complain too much, I ordered my MC on 11/12/05...anyway HI YA'All and stop chewing your nails....:impatient :impatient

 

Well, I guess I should break down and post something. I am tired of the reminder when I log on that tells me I have not done it yet.

I am a new MINI owner...well it is new to me. I have been lusting after these cars since they came out, but alas, I was still in college and could not afford one. I finally graduated and have a job now. There is no MINI dealership within about a hundred miles from where I live, so one does not see them that often. About 4 months ago, I saw a dark blue S with the white top and bonnet stripes on the BMW used car lot. I roared onto the lot in my old mighty '99 Mazda and the sales guy said it was already sold. I gave one of my business cards to him and asked him to call me if another hit the lot. Last month I was on an errand and passed by the lot again and there sat an '03 Chili Red S with a white top, S-lite run flats, leather, sun roof, and all the goodies. Once again, the Mazda zoomed into the lot without my having to coax it. I got a salesman to show me the car. We could not figure out how to get it into reverse for the test drive, but we overcame. He knew nothing about the car. I knew more than he did, but I have been researching since they first came out. It was the first time I have ever been in one and I was in heaven. When it was up by the office, I counted 12 people that came up to it and stuck their hands and faces up to the windows. I bought it that day and love it more each morning I open the garage.

I did see the sales guy that I gave my business card to the day I bought it. He looked at me and said, "I guess I really messed up by not calling you." Ahh, the look on his face was worth the wait.

You guys have a great site with lots of good information. I have already used it quite a bit with the vents that the foam dissolved, the XM radio and the front license plate bracket. I am sure there will be much more usefull information. Keep it coming!

Thanks:

Hi, Folks -

I've had my MCS (BRG/white top/mirrors, Xenons, web wheels, no sunroof, cloth interior, gauge package, bonnet stripes) for four months/4k miles now and just could not be happier. Had a lotta cars over the years, but none of them have been this much fun.

Here's my question: What are your favorite bang-for-the-buck upgrades that won't toast the warranty?

Best - JonT

 

Hello all, Im LJ and new to NAM (I have recently become addicted to it). I have been dreamin of my MCS now for almost 3yrs and finnally i have the $$ to bring one home. I just called 866 ASK MINI and the kind computer gentleman told me my Dark Silver MCS is in production and should be finished Jan 20, 2006.
