Hi everyone,
I'm Kevin, and I just bought a 2010 Mini S, in British racing green, with the white roof and hood stripes. I'm new to this forum, but not forums in general, as I am an active participant on the forum for my 4x4.

I haven't even lurked around yet, just jumping in and introducing myself! Now to go read up so I don't ask stupid questions, lol.

Believe it or not... I haven't gotten around to taking pictures of the mini yet! Too busy driving it, lol. 2500 miles on it in 3 weeks.

Good point. Does it help that I put on an aftermarket part already? The Craven Speed stubby antenna.

Thanks, though I suspect that might be a little self-serving. ;-)

I was behind another mini in traffic, and it was annoying the way the factory antenna was just flailing around. I decided it had to go.
