Hello, I don't own a mini but am sorta/kinda looking at them as a possibility. My girlfriends' stepfather has a MCS and thinks it's the greatest car on the planet. If a good deal shows up on one, I might become a new owner. For now I will just troll around the boards and read a bit. First impressions of the Mini owners; quite a passionate bunch and participate in many functions with your cars. Those two things have swayed me to look further into buying one.

Thanks

 

Minis are
a) a blast to drive
b) hold surpising amounts of stuff
c) get decent mileage
d) are as much fun as you can have and keep your pants on
and e) hadle exceptionally well.

Oh, and I forgot, have a rabit bunch of followers...

Did I forget to mention that they are really fun to carve canyons with?

 

 

I also at first was unsure if I should get one. My mom got an R56 and I loved it and had to get one. It is so much fun to drive and I love the features it has, and I get great gas mileage. My fiance just picked up his '08 because he loved mine so much.

So I say yes!!

 

If you are on the fence do not drive one, cause then you will have to own one. It happened to me, ordered one last night!!
