Somewhat new to site

I drive a pure silver/black 2005 Mini Cooper S (R53). 53,183 miles. Rear Aerokit. Planning on putting JCW coldair and JCW exhaust on the car within the next year. 35/20 Tint, stereo and driving lights coming this summer.

I also drive a 1980 Volvo 240 GT. ~140K miles. In the process of being restored. Pristine exterior (interior, not so much). Original silver colour with black and orange racing stripes.

Plan on posting pictures withing the next few days.

Cool! I'm new here too. I have red 2010 R55 S.
I also have a Volvo, a '98 V70 T5, with a few mods to the intake, exhaust and suspension. It's red too!

Very nice! My family has owned Volvos forever. The 240 was my fathers but he gave it to me this year as a graduation present. Needless to say, I was incredibly thankful. We have been restoring it for the past six years but pretty much lost interest/money to do it. Hopefully I can bring it back to its original luster.
We also have a red 1992 Volvo 960 and a brown metallic 1998 XC70. I love the Volvos, but I haven't driven anything that I love as much as my Cooper S
