Hello from VA

I've been lurking for years now, in that neverending quest for my own MINI. My name is Ryan, and I've been obsessed with MINIs since back in 2002. I think the search is nearly over though. I have several options in mind.

Ideally, I would like an '05 or '06 MCS, HB or IB, with white roof, no sunroof. I've discovered this combination is exceedingly rare it seems.

Nevertheless, I think I have sourced one that meets the criteria above, but without cruise. I did a search here and found that it can be done, but the details are a bit foggy to me at the moment.

Just wanted to stop in and say hi, and hopefully I can join you other MINI owners very soon.

Ryan

Well, I think I've found a different MINI. The one I mentioned above sold before I could act on it. No matter, I found another one that seems to fit the bill quite nicely.

2005 MCS Hyper Blue, white roof/mirrors, sunroof delete, cruise, H/K stereo. I'm pretty stoked. If all goes well, on the road tomorrow to Maryland to pick it up.

Wish me luck.

Ryan
