Hello from BC

I picked up my 2003 Cooper S about a month ago. I had to downsize my truck for better fuel economy, and wanted something fun, and good in snow. I test drove my first Mini the day after I watched the Italian Job, and decided that I would own one one day. It's been a few years, but I finally got one! The funny thing is that it's my wife's dream car, she's wanted one forever. Unfortunately for her, we got her a new car last winter, so this one is mine I just ordered an expansion tank for it, since the one I have is leaking at the seam, surprise. Also a new head unit with bluetooth as I'm missing that now. Don't know what to do next, probably exhaust since one of the mufflers has a hole in it. The addiction has started I can see, this has to be one of the funnest cars I've ever owned. Can't wait for the spring/summer since there are some really fun roads around here I can try it out on some twisties.

Welcome aboard!
The modding & repairs will become a normal occurance to you and your family. Get to know some of the great vendors we have around here for parts.

Enjoy the ride, keep an eye on that oil level and happy motoring!
