New to the forum.

Hi everyone, my name is Jeremy. I am from Nashua, NH. I don't currently own a Mini however I am seriously considering getting one. I work on BMW's for a living but do not know very much about Mini's. I can't wait to learn more about these and test drive one. I know people that own them, yet haven't gotten the chance to drive one.

Welcome to NAM!

Hopefully a test drive will be able to sway you to owning a MINI!

Do not, I repeat, do not, under any circumstances, test drive a MINI ... unless you are seriously ready to buy. Once you drive one you will have to have one, and if you haven't gotten yourself ready to jump, you will then be in agony until you do. Before I bought MS MINIVER, I had never even sat in a MINI before. But once I drove her out of the parking lot of the used car dealer, I had not gone two blocks before I knew I was sunk. I bought her that day and I didn't even bother arguing over the price. It would have been pointless anyway, because I was not going to be able to walk away without her.

Well thank you all for being so inviting. I do look forward to gaining all the information available in the forum. Perhaps I should hold back then on buying one but on the other hand I am very, VERY picky about what options I would want/need. I am pretty sure the car I am looking for was never created. I have searched for weeks now and have yet to find the one I have to have. Anyone in the NH/MA area want to let me rip on theirs for an afternoon? I promise I will bring it back.
