Thanks a lot!

This is my first manual car and it's pretty hard on me. I'll get the hang of it sooner or later.

Thanks, i'm finally getting the hang of it!!

I drove it in the city but I stalled in the parking lot .
My main problem is going into 1st gear, it's really jerky but other than that its a blast to drive.

Does anyone know how much a winshield costs for the MINI??

Congrats! Great looking car!

Now get busy on that garage. A car like that deserves a clean garage.
