New Motoring Advisor(South Bay Mini), Mini Owner and long time lurker!

Growing up in London, England I was alway interested in the classic Mini. When the new Mini was launched here in the States in 2002 I just had to have one! In November 2004 I purchased my first 2005 Mini Cooper S and the madness began. I was addicted to my new Mini and to this forum. I spent countless hours behind the wheel of my Mini and on this forum reading, researching and learning as much as I could.

Now I have a dream job selling Mini's here at South Bay Mini in Los Angeles surrounded by Mini's and fellow motorer's all day long. Some of you may know Amanda White, one of my colleagues here at South Bay Mini.

I want to introduce myself, say "Hi" to all you fellow forum users and be of any assistance I can. In all the time I spent lurking I was amazed at the helpfulness, knowledge and what a great place this forum is. A testament to the wonderful Mini community that exists.

I can be reached at paul@southbaymini.com if you need any help or have any questions regarding Mini vehicles, parts and service.

Cheers

Paul Sapienza

Lynn says it was a pleasure buying her MINI from you. She had a wonderful purchasing experience.

Lynn is still enjoying her MINI very much. She treats her "Cookie Monster" like its her buddy.

For those of you who are looking for a MINI dealer in SoCal, drop buy South Bay MINI and check them out.
