Just got my Mini too, 2005 Cooper S, pepper white w/black racing stripes, blk covered driving lights and 17" wheels. Love the Harmon Karden stereo too.

I play drums so I needed a hatch back... boy is this a hatch back!!! Not bad to park either but what a joy (again) to really 'drive' a car. Long ago (30 yrs) I had a little 2002 BMW, loved driving that car... this will surpass those experiences I'm sure and heck isn't that the way it's suppose to go?

Now where can I find maps which show all the great windy roads I need to go drive on.

Congrats on your new Mini, Randy! I hope your having as much of a blast with yours as I am with mine ;0)

 

Welcome abord lad, have fun.

 

....and the link, very nice of you. Pics when my daughter emails them to me.

Being new to a Mini is a suprize every time I look around the car or read the manual. The capabilities are well thought out and engineered into the various interfaces. Though my experience with high end cars is very limiter this Mini seems like it is the car design of the decades.

..... it's as if Apple made a car.
