New to NAM ifrom West Texas

Greetings all! Wee Beastie is a little over a year old and the love affair continues...I have had a chance to do more fun things with this car, it's just too cool! Truth be told, I have come into being a gear-head later in life and I really like it. A year ago I had never changed my own oil and now I have four changes under my belt (Royal Purple). My 1st mod has been a Alta shorty antenna and I thinks it is the first of many. Looking foward to meeting fellow Miniacs!

Welcome! Glad you love your little beast. I love mine also. Beware of the mod-bug. I started with a glove box organizer, with a shorty antenna next. Once you get started, it is hard to stop.

Have fun and post pictures as you go.

wait til you find a track close to you and all of a sudden you find yourself changing brakepads, rotors, and tires just for the day!

Mini2na and Atomic S - Thanks for the welcome and advise! The mod-bug has bitten HARD. In fact I have about 2 days to come up with a good cover story as to why Out Motoring has sent me 4 Team Dynamic Pro Race 1.2's in white! Oh well...go large or go home

Alpine Texas? Well I would guess that you don't run by the dealer too often. I would also guess you don't have weekly "greet and eats" with fellow MINIacs, but you do have a great conversation piece and surefire opening comment on 4 wheels.

Sounds like your a happy camper, if I am ever on my way from El Paso to San Antone I'll drive around till I find you. ENJOY
