Wow, just wow !

So found this site, great insight. Picked up my first new-to-me mini. 02 launch edition. Did the ecu reset and through a can of seafoam in the tank, and shazam, I was amazed. Would never had believe that it would have been a very noticeable difference, but it was. With the research I did before getting this car I felt all you can do is hope the last owner took care of it and I continue. That aside, this thing is a blast to drive.

I tell my wife I'm number 1, but the mini is 238. Chili red with a white racing stripe. Next week I'll try and get some pics up.

Welcome to NAM, really huge, and congrats on your new MINI. It sounds like a great find but since we can't see it, who knows. Where are the pics?

Ya, I gotta get some pics up. Probably nothin' in the driveway too soon, came home to a nice blizzard today. Although, that white-out would look good with the chili red.

Congrats on the launch edition! I have number 69.

Could someone post a link to the ecu reset?

Thank you very much!
