Hi,
Just joined and have a new 07 Mini.
Laser Blue with a dark blue convertible top.
So far so good and am enjoying all the top down motoring.

Swing on by the Europe section and see what's new in the neighboyhood.

There's a France / Black Forest drive day in July, and Poppa Bear is making some mad noises about a Swiss Alps run to try out a new 17% pulley.

Abuzavi forgot to mention the free bier and wursts and strudel at his house every Monday night for all the German MINIacs.

Drink one for me when you stop by.

And congrats and welcome to NAM! The German group has a lot of fun - take the time to join them for some of it!

I envy that you live in Germany. You can actually unleash the full speed potential of the MINI.

Tschuss!!

The 8 lane stretch of autobahn between Darmstadt and Frankfurt early on Sunday mornings is a great place to check your top speed. Welcome to NAM!

I always like Autobahn 5 between Aschaffenburg and Frankfurt, or the back roads from Baumholder to Wiesbaden.

Did you ever go to the Prodo-X, or Paramount Park?

Never went to either! Lived in Heidelberg, Darmstadt and Hanau, plus SHAPE and an interesting tour in France....
