I picked up my new 2008 Mini Cooper (Lightning Blue) convertible 3/29/08 and I'm having a ball. This has been a great year: turned 60, went to Hawaii to celebrate, and now I'm a Mini owner. Got 34 mpg with the first break in tank of gas.

Looking forward to learning everything there is to know about this great little car.

Coop du jour

 

Welcome to NAM, It's great to have some money the older we get. Maybe uncle sam want take it all before I can enjoy some of it.

 

Congrats on the new baby! Have you named your Mini?

 

Best screen name. Ever.

Congratulations!

 

We're so new in the relationship; I've got to live with her for a while before she gets a name. She sure gets a lot of attention.

Thanks for the props on the sign-in name. I've been referring to the Mini as "the Coop" and the name just popped into my head.

 

Nice color for your cabrio. And I agree, cool screen name. Congrats on both getting a new MINI and your birthday. Happy birthday! I have 9 years to go to catch up to you. Traveled thru but never had a vacation in Hawaii... I'll have to do that for my birthday some year.
