Hello!
I finally got my first brand new car, and it was a Mini. Couldn't have been a better choice for my first un-used, I must say.
I'm still breaking it in (just got past 800 yesterday), did a tiny little gear-grind going into reverse today (completely my fault, and I should have known better, having traded in a BMW with the same gear placement), and fall more in love with it every day, which is why the gear grind was strangely traumatic.
Searches for Mini information have brought me here several times over the past few weeks, so I thought I'd finally just register.

Thanks for the welcome!
I've taken many pictures of my Hardtop Cooper S (spice orange, white top & mirrors, moonroof, 6 spd), but this is the most recent and, really, the most important:

Congratulations and thanks for the pictures! I took delivery of my Roadster on October 7th and, for various reasons, only have 400 miles on the odometer. At this rate I'll hit my break-in number in 2014.
