Recent Mini Cooper S Owner

Hello everyone, I'm just checking in because I recently purchased a 2004 Mini Cooper S and am very happy with it. The original owner took care of it very well which is a testament to the type of people that drive this car. I've already read through a few threads and everyone is very helpful! I'm sure I'll be on this site a lot.

Welcome! I just bought my used '04 MCS in November and am loving it, too!

It had 75k miles, so I've needed to spend some money on maintenance and repairs, but still far cheaper than a new one.

Nothing wrong with that, and it still makes Motoring in a MINI fun! Once you are done with that, the fun mods are right around the corner!

Let me know if I can help!

Yes, far cheaper than a new one. I actually test drove a used '09 MCS and aside from a few bells and whistles that I don't really care for, I couldn't rationalize spending $10K more (I'm sure those that own R56's can tell me the advantages of the newer model).
