Hello Everyone,
My first post but hopefully not the last. I picked up my Mini on Monday June 13, from Moritz Mini in Arlington,Tx. I must say it's hard to observe the break-in period. Today while traveling down I-35 in Austin, I got my first speeding ticket in 20 years. Just traveling with traffic and the motorcycle radar cop picked out the red Mini with black racing stripes 71 in a 55 mph area oh well I hope defensive driving hasn't changed too much in the last 20 yrs. Enough for now.

Welcome. Sorry to hear about your ticket! I'm a little worried since I got mine; I'm becoming something of a bad boy.

Pics????

welcome to the club!

And remember, now you LOOK fast too! That means you have to be a bit slower than the rest to not be picked on. Trust me, I've had lots of extroverted cars!

Anyway, welcome to Mini-dom!

Matt
