First post, first car!

Hello everyone!

Just purchased a 2013 Justa, my very first car at 25 years old. I think it was worth the wait!

A quick description for anyone interested: Automatic, British Racing Green II w/ black top/mirrors, premium package 2, the black version of the stock 15" wheels. In addition, custom stripe work done by the dealer so they could post it outside of University of Oregon games (my alma mater).

Been lurking on this site for some time so I look forward to being a more active member, learning everything I can and sharing in the MINI love.

Congratulations! I started driving late too, got my first car (my '06 Cooper.) at 26 after riding motorcycles for several years. We're spoiled now, though!
