New to the site...And to Mini ownership

Hi, i'm Greg, recently bought an '04 MCS with just under 50k and I love it so far. Still getting used to the quirks but so far so good! Hopefully no problems come my way.

Good to be here

Nice to hear from you in the forums, and welcome. Remember that there IS a Mini culture you are entering, and to embrace this culture all you have to do is wave at every Mini you see in the world and then join the Exterordinary League of MINIacs who are trying to save the Wave! Good Luck w/ all future endevers.

It's an '04 S and so far i've done an Alpine stereo deck, sparco shift ****, Auto Meter boost gauge on the inside, and Hella 500 blackmagic lights and a Yakima roof rack on the outside. I've also done an Alta CAI, the one-ball exhaust mod, an aluminum coolant tank, full skid plate, and currently have a Hochkis H-sport rear sway bar and Megan racing short shifter in the mail!
