Hi there!
I am a new member to the North American Motoring. I come from Egypt and currently live in the Washington Dc area. I've got a pepper white Cooper S with checkered mirror caps, and I love it!
Cheers,
Mahmoud

I came to DC to work for the Embassy of Egypt in the USA.
I love Bethesda, that's a very nice area.
