Hi Everyone,

I am a new and happy owner of a used 2004 Jet black Mini S with 33,900 miles.

I have wanted a mini for a few years and was just able to convince my wife to let me have one...

Question is ..

What to do first .. I have posted a couple pictures of my new Mini for all to see...

Oh and in San Antonio, Tx. If there is a owners association here I would surely like to know the only website I found for San Antonio didn't seem to active

 

First order of business: Get out and drive!

 

Just got home 200 miles today .. I don't want to drive to far until I get it in and serviced ... Its only got 2000 miles left on the service warranty...

 

Go out US90 West, turn right at Sabinal, then about 20 miles to the turn off for 2890. I have a ranch nearby and have never seen a cop on this smooth and curvy road. 1050 above Garner is also about as good as it gets. Go fast.

Then start making modifications, lower springs, M7 and Alta stuff and cosmetics like black out. There are a lot of people here on NAM to help you. Have fun!

 

Jet Black... Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice !!

Welcome to NAM and Happy Motoring.

 

Don't see many Jet Black Mini's, very nice! Congrats! I use to live in San Antonio, great Mexican food!

 

Watch where you park it in the summer! At least you didn't get the sunroof with that. Looks slick.

 

Welcome to NAM! Lovely MINI you have! Here's a list of the Texas MINI clubs. I live in Central Texas (Waco area) and belong to Metroplex MINI. It's a bit of a drive , but they're a great group of Miniacs.
