Greetings from Russia, Saint-Petersburg

Hello, MINI-fans!

This october was bought MCS'04 for my wife. Great car, I really like this little "monster".


Some pics:






Are already installed mirror caps (all three), front tower bar is waiting its time... Looking for new brake system. Too many plans, too high prices for delivery from USA...

Marry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Nice mini, and great photos. Put a link up to some more shots of snowy St. Petersberg? And maybe a daylight shot of the mini

Welcome to NAM... sharp looking MINI !!

Hope you become a regular here on the board, it'll be nice to get your perspective on things... we don't get too many MINI owners from Russia here on NAM.

Do you see many MINIs running around there ?
