Congrats on Rocky. Let the mods begin. I am new here also, waiting for a Clubman S to be built. Was Rocky a new born when he became yours and what kinda problems were there?
There is a ton of information available here.

Welcome
Yes Rocky's a newborn when I first had it. 10mins after collecting the car, check engine indicator light up Had the car send back immediately to the dealership. Diagnosis showed fault coming from the fuel tank, and after burning off the fuel and topping up fresh fuel, problem was solved. Then came a few other problem....noisy aircon, paintwork problem and rattling on doors. But all is good now. It was indeed a rocky start, thus the name Rocky lol

Welcome! And congrats on your purchase minireddot! This is my first post here too.

I am impatiently waiting for the mailman to deliver me a lump-sum pension plan check from my last employer to put down on a Mini. I won't be retirement age until about 2040, so I figured I'd buy a Mini instead.

I am also thinking about red as a first choice too. Congrats again!

You new MINI looks fantastic, minireddot. Hopefully no where near as rocky as the first time. Happy motoring and don't forget to wave.
