Mini Newbe

Hi everyone. My name is Tim and I just bought a 2008 Mini JCW. I am very new to this car. Had no intention of buying this car when I met a friend of mine in Indianapolis IN. So far the wife and I are enjoying it. This is the only picture I have of it right now.

Just sort of a impulse buy. Plus my buddies said it was a good buy. I bought it from a friend of mine. I hold a rally every year a lot of people have Mini's. We were going to take it to the mini rally in the Ozarks. The check engine light came on so we took it to the dealer and they found it to be carbon on the valves. I thought those days were gone when the carb went by by. Had to drive the Z to the rally and our daughter had blast driving the Mini for a week. She put more miles on it than we did.
