My new ... slightly used Mini

Hi everyone! I wanted a Mini Cooper for many years and I finally broke down and bought one although I need a 4WD more than a Mini but it's so cute and my gf just loves it! With the warm weather here in Lake Tahoe, CA I guess we won't have to worry about the snow and snow chain until next winter.

I was down in LA, visiting Mom and had a few minutes to cruise craigslist .... and that's where I found her. She's a 2007 Mini Cooper R52 convertible with 60K miles. We towed her home from LA with a car dolly I rented from U-haul. I had no problem towing her over the Grapevine with my little Mazda B2600 2WD pickup truck.
