Welcome to NAM, glad to see another Austrian joining the forum. How long have you owned the R50?

Hi Liquid,

I feel like I'm almost an Austrian. I was the Treasurer of Creditanstalt, NY, USA until 2001. I spent lots of time in Wien, and I really miss going there. You have a great looking MINI. Enjoy, and happy motoring.

You will probably miss the food of austria?

This MINI was bought by my mum in 2002. Of course, she didn't make any changes on the car
In 2008, when my dad bought himself a new MazdaSpeed 6, my mum also wanted to have a new car - and i decided to ask her very friendly if it's possible that I get her "old" one. First of all she looked like this , but after a short time of thinking she said YES

In the beginning I bought new light-alloy rims for summer (OZ Superturismos ), the rest was still original:




And so I changed more and more things of my MINI...
And the MINI addiction grew and grew and grew...

Welcome

Nice Mini! I lived almost 6 years in Germany and met a few guys from Austria while there.
