"Welcome to Nam"... brrrrr.... bad memories! LOL!!! Anyway, looking seriously to buying my first MINI and my buddy linked me to this. Ready to peruse the forums!
New to NAM, been lurking and doing lots of research. don't own a Mini yet, but will soon. Looking for a nice 05-07, checked out a nice 05 MCS today. Nice site here, I am learning a lot!!
be nice to your new mini as you break it in... this weekend i went over my mark of 2000 mile and now i am consider it broken in...i will treasure my MINI for many years to come
Hello everyone! I recently traded in my 2008 Chevy Silverado for a 2010 Dark Silver MCS and I must say from the first moment I drove my MINI, I said to myself, "This is going to be a start of a beautiful relationship..."
Hello everyone. I was sort of looking for a new car, something fun and good on gas and I discovered the mini clubman. I went and test drove one last Saturday and its in my garage tonight!!! Its a 2010 Clubman S Hot Chocolate/Silver and It is the most fun I think I have ever had on 4 wheels!!! My friends have been looking at me oddly for the last week (I traded in a Chevy truck) but 2 of them got a ride tonight and were amazed by this incredible car. I hope to learn a lot from my fellow mini drivers.

Hello and Happy Holidays.
We are thinking of getting a Mini Clubman. Want to learn all we can about them as we were introduced to them at Car Show in Phoenix, live in Casa Grande, AZ.
Thanks, Pilot John and co-pilot Linda
I just recently bought a 2005 MCS in British Racing Green with 23,000 miles. Thus my screename. Alot of options, I'll save that for when my camera is charged. I can honestly say that this is all around, the enjoyable car to drive. No car has ever made me smile everytime I walk out to the driveway. I have already installed a Gen2 Alta Intake, and 15% pulley is on its way!
I am also from the NW Suburbs of Chicago, so if anyone knows of some Mini groups, feel free to send me any info!
This is my first post on the forum! One month ago I bought a 2006 MCS in space blue with silver. His name is Thor, cause he thinks he's much bigger than he actually is! He's full of attitude and a blast to drive.
New to NAM and to the Mini motoring world. Just brought home a Dark Siver S vert. My wife and I are having a blast, what a fun drive! Can't wait to do the Skyline drive with the top down.
Hi all,
recently picked up a first gen Cooper, fairly standard but great fun and looks well too! Some standard mods planned (stripes, spots) also will be attempting general DIY and fixing the common faults.
I've already spotted the previous owner made a bad DIY job on seatbelt pretensioner wiring....
Greetings,
My introduction into the Mini world has been a whirlwind experience, to say the least! My wife fell in love with Minis and purchased hers about 2 months ago. It's a 2010 Cooper S, Chili Red, and it's been a blast!
Now I have been bitten by the Mini bug! But of course it had to happen after purchasing a new car just a few months ago. Doh! So, in spite of all financial logic, I just ordered my Mini, and am now waiting (im)patiently for its arrival. I chose a '10 Clubman JCW in British Racing Green.
I have been obsessively poking aound Mini forums, for a while, and NAM is by far the best national forum out there. It has really helped me make the decision about what options to choose and what accessories I will want to get in the future.
To everyone who contributes, a big "thank you!"

I've had my 2006 MC, "Fresh Butter", for 3 years. It's much more fun than the card stock fold-up version I had on my bedside table for a couple of years when the new MINIs first came out. I'm learning so many interesting (and important) things on this forum. Thanks to everyone.
I got my Mini in September and have been loving it ever since. Motoring has never been so fun! I'm still trying to mod out my 09 MC and this is a great place to look for help and references. Hoping to feel at home here, we are all Mini enthusiasts!!
Just a hello, recently joined the ranks of you MINI fanatics. Got a 04 JCW MCS liquid yellow, love it and am in the process of adding a few mods to this baby.Nice forum ya got here.
