New MINI owner from Puerto Rico

I just purchased a 2005 Indie Blue MINI which I love almost as much as my Vette... hahahaha Have to fix a few things but enjoy it very much (so far)

We hope you enjoy your new ride, and thanks for hanging your hat with NAM for a bit. Someone is always cooking up something good to read here --or not . Here's my definition of the MINI: a short car that inspires some long tales.

I had to put a new clutch kit. Need new front tires. I'm the radio doesn't sound the FM. Aux, CD's and AM works Ok. Somebody told me the FM antenna module is missing, but I'm not sure about that. Dealership in PR won't give me info, unless I leave the car there.

Welcome. a MINI is a perfect car for PR. I was there for 4 days at the beginning of my honeymoon in Nov of '09 and rented a car (Dodge Charger) and had a blast driving in the traffic and up in the mountains at the NE corner of the island. The MINI would easily be able to get in and out of traffic with the way people drive there.

It's a pretty good daily driver, but I'm so use to the power from my Vette.
