Longterm MINI owner, but newbie here

Hello!

Maybe i'm not exactly North American, but a mini owner anyway
I live in Torino (yes... you're right... where the Winter Olimpic Games took place this year) and i'm driving my BRG Cooper since 2004.

Listing all the changes i did during the last 2 years to the bodywork, wheels, engine, suspension and interior of my mini would take me a lot of time, so i prefer to pass over. Maybe later on...

Ciao!!!!

Welcome to NAM! I visited Torino with my brother in 2004, driving a classic Mini pick-up truck. We had a great time!

It's funny! I visited San Diego on December 2003: very nice and quiet city and nightlife is
I spent 6 months in California (LA) in 2003: one of the best years of my life!

Thank you guys for you warm welcome and thank you for visiting the website of our local mini club. Yes, it's pretty large and is growing fast

To COOPERation: yes... looks like someone stole something from NAM
