From SAAB to MINI

Good evening all!

As of yesterday I officially took the plunge and traded in my beloved Saab 9-3 Viggen for a 2008 Lightning blue Cooper hardtop!

It's been a blast so far, and by joining this forum I'm excited to get the absolute most out of this wonderful little machine!

My MINI is living in Appleton, Wisconsin. Since it's already almost October, we'll soon find out how the little Cooper handles in the snow. Hopefully it's not too bad.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and have a nice night!

-Ashwin

Welcome! I live in Maine and will soon be seeing how my '06 Cooper Hardtop does in the snow too. Everyone says having the right tires makes all the difference. Have fun!

Double that welcome! I'm in the Washington, DC, metro area. Our winters are hit and miss, but this is my last one (thank God!). Front wheel drive should help a lot with the snow IMO.
