Hello from NE Florida

Good evening,

I am new to the forum and like the name states....looking for a Cooper S soon. Im hunting and looking around for the right year/mileage/price combo that seems to be a REALLY dificult task. It does however make the hunt exciting.

I currently drive a 2000 mustang GT, that i've had for the last 7 years and 100,000 miles, and really need and want something not so stinkin expensive to operate on a day to day basis (17mpg hwy/city). I drive about 450 miles a week sooooo...... yeah. I really enjoy the mini's and look forward to finding the perfect fit.

Thanks in advance for answers to any of my stupid questions, and forgiveness for failures to use the search function effectively, and all other forum mistakes one can make.....lol. I am not new to forums so those should be minimal

Excited about learning everything I can about these geat machines.


Thanks

What are looking for Supercharged or Turbocharged? New Used? Color Preference. Spending limit. If you want a MCS that was an M7 demo car, This is the ticket. If I had the dough, she would be in my stable. What do you thing?

Welcome from a fellow Floridian and Mustang owner!

If you really want to see a bunch of MINIs to help you decide what you like and have an opportunity to ask a million questions, the Florida statewide MINI picnic is this weekend, and I'm sure there is a caravan down from "NE Florida", at least the Jacksonville area. The actual picnic is in Ocala.

If you're interested or just interested in FL specific events/info, check out the Sunshine MINIs website in addition to all the great info here on NAM.
