Relatively new Clubman owner from Kansas!

Good morning everyone! I bought a pepper white 09 Clubman s about 3 months ago and have taken these last three months to completely fall in love with my first Mini. I am hoping to have a lot underway for this car as it is my first Mini, but I along with my friends have a wealth of experience working on all kinds of cars (mostly japanese). The first thing I noticed was the difference in just about EVERYTHING from my last car which was a Subaru Legacy GT.
The only thing I have been able to do to my new, to me, Mini is get it on some lowering springs for a much better look, and get some new fog lights. I am hoping to keep this car forever and maybe at some point buy a new one and turn this one into something fast.
That's about all from me, for the time being, looking forward to having great relationships with other Mini owners out there!!

FYI-the best independent MINI service and repair shop in the Wichita area is Bavarian Auto. Maurice and crew have done an oitstanding job servicing our R53 since the day the service and warranty expired. Congrats on your choice!

Welcome to NAM! I too drive a Subaru as well, STi to be exact (I love the GT's). The Mini most definitely is a whole different animal. Hope you enjoy it! Cheers.
