Greetings from Norway
Hello everybody! Greetings from the cold north in Europe 
First of all I'd like to apologize in advance for any typos in my tread.
In August last year I finally baught the car of my dreams: the one and only Mini Cooper S! Been looking at this for years but different situations caused me to delay my dream for some years, but now it was my time to shine and after a little time looking at different ads I went to pick up my choice.
The car I'm driving is a 2004 MCS with 69' miles on it.
Norwegian prizes and taxes are somthing by itself. Paid 23.500 $ for it, but it's worth it I think.
Haven't done any modifications to it yet, but it came with a Alta CAI system.
My future plans is:
- black out all chrome.
- new headliner (black)
- dipstick Craven
- strut tower brace with the support from under the strut tower to prevent mushrooming.
- 17x7 Rotiform BLQ (I know that there's a lot of them over to you guys, but I like the looks and I haven't seen a Mini with those here.)
-coilovers
- Tinted windows
- stubby
- tow hook
-general maintenance and TLC
In the long run:
- new pulley
- seats by Recaro for Mini
- new paint BRG
- Probably Borla exhaust
Now for som pictures. Many of them in a not so good quality I'm afraid...
The day I picked her up!
At my work for a little detailing
Parked next to the family car, a 2012 Ford Smax. I don't know if you have that model?
Parked next to my neighbours Nissan Patrol
Maybe not the best place to post a question, but I'll throw it out there. How do I clean the filter on the CAI? Can I wash it with a special liquid or do I have to change the filter?
So, thank you all for taking the time to check in on my tread and sorry again for the poor english

Welcome to NAM, Nabon and congrats on your new MINI. Thanks for a great selection of pics. You'll probably have more pics to come, based on the mod list you have composed. You seem to have a great running to do list. Happy motoring and please don't forget to promote the MINI wave.
