Just popping in to say hi!! I bought my 2006 Mini Cooper S back in August last year, but just found this forum. I traded in my Ford Ranger after owning for 10 years, and I can't believe I waited this long to get a Mini. I absolutely love this car. I commute more than 70 miles daily between work and part time school at night, and my Mini makes that drive soooo much more fun!!!

Lovely, and Welcome! My commute is about as long as yours, and I truly believe driving mine on a daily basis TOTALLY makes it worthwhile! Congratulations and post a pic or 2 of your MINI! We loooove pics around here!

Congrats, belatedly, Doogie! Welcome to the forum. I'm new also, but it has been a great resource for me while I was trying to decide whether to Mini up or not. Obviously, I made the same choice you did... the RIGHT one!!!

Thanks all!! It feels good to be welcomed. I just took some pics of my baby, so I'll get them uploaded this weekend, maybe Friday night. I'm in class right now, and won't get home until late.

Okay, here is a pic of "scarlet". I will try and get some more when she gets cleaned up. If this doesn't show up, it is in my gallery.
