Long time fan, first time owner here, I just bought a gently used '09 Clubman S. He's a dapper fellow- pepper white top and bottom, black interior, still stock on all counts. Purchased from my dad, no less, who just bought the new 2013 Clubman JCW in the same color scheme, with a few more options.

Been skulkin' around since I picked him up, thought I'd dip my feet in and say hello. This board is a great source of info and inspiration! There are some great vehicles here!

My MINI was purchased in Northern CA, but as I'm in Southern CA I'm in need of a solid service department. I've read sooo many posts on the pros and cons of all the local dealerships, but most of them seem to be last year or older. Anyone have any suggestions based on current dealership experiences in the Los Angeles area, particularly in the service department? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again everyone! Be safe and happy motoring!
