Congratulations!!! Tell us more about your new MINI. Color? Style?

Proof of purchase (i.e. pictures) are also a hidden requirement in NAM.

Welcome! I too am fairly new to this site, folks are very helpful with their posts. I've lerned a lot of helpful tips when trying to search and track my MINI. BTW- don't know your local, but I just came accros a post and learned that there is a gathering this Sunday where the MINIs are being featured. So, there is a call for ALL MINI owners to come out and show of their car. Enjoy and safe driving to you! And congrats on raising those teenagers (insert high-five here)!!!

ready2roll,

Hi There! Here is the thread to the meet tomorrow: Supercar Sunday, Woodland Hills, CA Meetup check out the thread for detail info. LOL. I hear you loud and clear 'bout your youngster itching to drive your jewel. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!! Post some pix when you have a chance. We too have been waiting to get a MINI. Finally, after years of debating, renting, inquiring, and test driving,we bit the bullet and got one. I'll finally become a MINI owner as next week my MINI arrives in port. LOL. I'm feeling a bit poetic-- 'Pinched the nickles, saved the dimes, soon the MINI, will be all mine...' Drive safe!

ready2roll,
