New PDX Mini Owner '09

Greetings NAM,

After 12 months of consideration, I purchased a pepper white Mini Cooper Hardtop. It's not a brand new machine but the quote from the shop where I had the pre-purchase inspection said to me, "I have some bad news for you....buy it, this thing is great!" So i sold my Prius and entered a new world. I have to say I look forward to getting into my car everyday. I cannot explain why I like it so much except to say I DIG IT!!!!

It's got 47k and was originally from Ohio. It's absolutely perfect.

Thanks to everyone who has posted so much useful info. I have spent a fair amount of time getting my questions answered.

Welcome! Glad you've seen the light and have dumped the Prius!

A MINI and the NW.... a perfect combo. Welcome and enjoy your ride. I still find myself smiling as I drive mine after 5 years.
