Hello From Olathe kansas

Mike from Olathe (suburb of Kansas City). We picked up an unplanned mini a few weeks ago and love it! The wife was driving her Range Rover(still have) a lot and getting bad fuel mileage etc and out of the blue she said "how about a mini" and we bought it the next week.

The car - 2005 hyper blue cabrio S with 23,000 miles, has the 17 inch rims, cold weather package, chronos package, etc. The car is exactly how I would of ordered it.

I will be putting some mods on 1) cold air 2) pulley 3) maybe exhaust or just new mufflers---- ANY RECOMMENDATION FOR ASHOP IN KC?

Thanks,,

Mike

Welcome and Congrats on your new hobby.
If you haven't already, check out the KC MINI Club, we're having a gathering this Thursday at a local sonic.
http://www.kcminiclub.com/
I'm pretty sure there is at least one thread on our forums dedicated to recommended maintenance shops around town

Hey I am in Olathe too! Executive airport area actually. Just picked up my Mini 2 weeks ago.
There is in fact a thread on the kc mini forums about service shops.
