Seattle Newb

Hi all. Just making my first post on NAM. I purchased a 2013 MCS in July 2013 and I'm loving it.

So far I have tinted the windows, installed a stubby antenna, my wife got me a black union jack cover for the rear view mirror, and I found a used JCW steering wheel. Not sure what other mods I will be doing, but nothing too crazy.

I come from the VW/Audi world having recently sold my 2007 A4 and my 1998 Jetta GLX. I also have a 2006 X5 and a 1973 Westfalia.

Pics of the MCS:

Welcome to NAM and congrats on your new MINI. I myself was a VW owner for about 15 years. I'm enjoying my MINI Roadster way more! Thanks for the pics. Happy motoring and don't forget to wave.

Welcome to the NAMily dabble and grats on getting a MINI.. You're going to love it here with us MINIacs!

Thanks for posting a pic of your MINI... Sweet ride! Btw, nice looking Bimmer and V-Dub!

Your wife is a sweetie getting you stuff for your MINI... Nice to see you both are enjoying the car!

Be careful now, cause once that 'Mod-Bug' bites you, you just can't stop Youifying your MINI!

Like Bram says, "Don't forget to wave!" and may you, your wife and your MINI share many miles and smiles as you travel on Life's road!

Motor On!

Welcome to the community! I'm pretty new around here as well. I live in the San Juan Islands off of Anacortes, so just a few hours from you. Cool to see another guy from WA!

Grats on the MINI and have fun!
