first cooper, new member - yahoo!

Hi Everyone, I just bought a Mini and went on a great 600 mile drive in AZ on some spectacular roads. I'm looking for a place to write in and get ideas for making the car a sweeter ride. What a great car to have fun in.

Congrats on your purchase! What'd you get, i.e. year, color, specs. Of course we all expect some pics once you park it long enough. And yep, for the money I'm not sure you can have more fun on four wheels.

Welcome!

We got the most stock mini there is. We put the run flat tires on it and the dealer threw in an armrest. We are having a great time tooling around. It is horizon blue, white hardtop, automatic and since we've owned it we put a set of checkered stripes on the sides and a double badge holder on the rear plate that looks great. Watch out. We took it on the "twist and shout" out here in AZ last month and had a blast. That's it. We are thrilled to drive something this fun.
Thanks for the replies. See ya.

This forum is a great place to learn what can make your hot hatch hotter. You can also get a lot of ideas from the MC2 MINI magazine http://www.mc2magazine.com/
or a local MINI club http://new.minimania.com/web/Display...y/ArticleV.cfm
