New Kids In Town!

Hi all! In May I became the proud adoptive parent of a 10 month old MINI Cooper S named Spike. His birth father decided he wanted a girl (automatic) instead of a boy (manual) which left Spike without a garage to call his own.



So I happily came to Spike’s rescue. We’ve spent endless hours getting to know one another, including a road trip from our home in Atlanta thru the states to Toronto, Canada!

This seems to be a really great group, and we’ve learned a lot already in our short time here.

We’ll see you and yours on the road!

That definition is cute....however, we have 2 girls and they are both manual. Sounds like you have the MINI fever....Happy Motoring!!

Welcome to NAM to you and Spike from central Ga. It's great that you gave a good home to a MINI in need. I live in Milledgeville where people still ask....."what kind of car is that"???
