New to Mini & NAM

Hi! Brand new to the world of Mini(as of January 2010) & I LOVE it! I got a great deal on an 03 Hardtop but was thinking of upgrading to a new S, possibly a clubman, but this current car runs great so far besides the radio acting up twice & the car shaking for a minute when I took it on a road trip in very cold weather. Can anyone weigh on these issues or give me some advice?
I appreciate it! I can't wait to learn everything I can to take care of my car. Thanks!

Thanks all. This site has been super helpful & jacked up my enthusiasm for all things Mini. The shaking only happened once & the radio acted up a couple times. I'm thinking it's just a fluke(hope!). I had taken the car to the dealership for a check & all was fine besides needing new boots. The deal I got on the Mini was too good to be true so I am thinking I will stick with my 03 until something happens or maybe check out the Countryman. I really wish I had bought a Mini years ago! Better late than never I guess.
