Hi! My first Mini & I'm in Love!

2010 MCS Pepper White w/Black roof & she is loaded! I'm getting close to retirement & decided to finally buy a Mini.

May sound goofy, but the movie Italian Job made me take notice. Been watching and wanting one ever since.
Anyway, I'm happy to be here and am looking forward to a long relationship with my new baby.

RNJoyce, your reasons are NOT goofy at all!

I have wanted a MINI since I saw the 2000's Italian Job movie. I have the DVD and and loved the R53 model that the character Stella so much that when I was ready to purchase, I preferred the supercharged years because of the 'charger whine heard in movie scenes! (OK, now I'M goofy!)

WELCOME & CONGRATS!!!
