My wife has always loved Mini Coopers and we got her a Horizon Blue Cooper S earlier this year. My commute changed from 15 to 40 miles each way recently, and I decided that a Mini would be a good idea for me as well. My '06 Mustang GT got around 20 MPG in mixed driving, and my wife's Mini was getting a tad over 32. I found a Pure Silver Clubman S that I really like, so I snatched it up. Crappy cell phone pic attached.

 

Welcome - What part of Texas? There lots of great MINI Clubs around

Plus several other in Central Tex and East Tx

 

Nice garage! The only problem I see w/a two MINI household (and it'd be a pleasant dilemma at that) is deciding who gets to drive and/or whose car do you take?

 

We're in San Antonio. (I just updated my profile so everyone can see) Thanks for the kind welcome!

 

It's funny that you say that, because we also have a 2000 Jeep Cherokee (boat hauler, aka gas hog) that we decided would be the family hauler as well when we sold her Fit to get the Mini, but we'd always cram into her Mini anyway, because I liked driving it so much. We'll probably use the Clubman for the family now since it has a bit more room. We have two kids 14 and 12 that fit fine back there. I always got to drive the family around in her Mini since she got to drive it to work everyday. Now we'll be in MY mini, so I'll be driving. Ha!

Thanks for the Welcome!

Welcome, used to live in SA, moved to Colorado 11 years ago. Had enough of the heat and humidity. Enjoy your Mini's, come do the twisties in Colorado one day, beats IH10 and 410 traffic everyday.

 

Welcome, there are a number of two MINI families and it appears to be growing each month.

Currently only 1 here and 2 jeeps and a ford, but that will change with the Countryman.

What plans to you have for mods, stripes, etc?

My wife wants stripes, but I kind of like the clean look for mine. I was checking out Rocky Mountain Graphics for her stripes. I'll post updated pics should we go that route. Again, thanks for all the welcomes.

 

Congrats & Welcome!!! From another two-MINI family that's living the dream...

 

Welcome to the forum, we always love to see 2 MINI families. ENJOY!
