New to Nam Jax Fl

I've had my 06 MCS Hyper-Blue mini for almost three years, got from my dad when he passed. He was original owner, I got it in 2010 with 5800 mls. Not a typo, he never drove it it's been garage kept it's whole life. You guys have been so much help! I have used the DIY stuff from Octaneguy (Brakes) stevedoll (rad fan) gurldoc (service mode) You guys have saved me a ton of cash! I'll post some pictures soon, thanks again for all the help.

06 MCS, HB,Sport pkg, MSD coil, nology wires, 15% pulley, KN air filter, craven strut tower defenders, Beru ultra X colder plugs, Sp Performance cross drilled & slotted rotors w/EBC redstuff pads, Conti DWS tires, IPod connection.

It was stock when I got it with the help here on NAM I did all this myself, you guys rock!
Dave, Jacksonville, Fl

I promised my Dad I would keep it and pass it on to my son. I only drive it on the weekends and to the club events here in Jax. My son keeps asking when will he get to drive Grandpa Jack's Mini? My response...when you get out of college, assuming I'm tired of driving it. I'll get some pictures up on here, I forgot to add the limo tint all around. Next mod, new black wheels, then it will be all blue and black. Think I'll call it "bruiser"
