New guy

Hello everyone, just wanted to say hello. I have been looking around on this forum for some time now. Some great info on here and seems like some great Mini owner also. I have always owned German cars for the exception of a couple of jeeps. At this time I own an 2004 Audi A4 USP, which I am getting ready to sell and then get my first Mini Cooper S. After all the searches and all the great info I have found I am looking in the 2005 year of the Cooper S. Hopefully before the end of this year I will be a new member of the Mini family in Arizona.
I just wanted to say Hi.
Dave

Welcome and congrats! There are a few around here that might take offense about our "British" cars being German, but I won't quibble. I figure that most of the parts have BMW part numbers....

Welcome,
The way I look at it, the best drunken British engineers got together with the best drunken German ones and voila. My wonderful mini

Thanks guys for bringing that up and OrionLTD that was a perfect explanation. Sorry that I didn't reply sooner but this past Friday my wife and I had our first baby. A little girl. So now I need to find a mini cooper S shirt for a new born.
