Wife has wanted a Cooper S Convertible and we've been looking at the for a few years, never finding one that hit all the numbers, but one came into the dealership my Dad is at, and now we have a "new" 2006 in the garage.

This is all quite new to me, much to learn, but glad to be here.

 

Welcome to NAM, MojoDiver and congrats on your new MINI. Where are the pics?

 

Here's a pic of the wife with the Mini after we brought it home. Didn't care for the rims when we bought it but they've grown on me...

 

I was just thinking to myself, MojoDiver, please explain the rims.

 

The rims came with the car. I hated them at first, passionately, but the wife likes them and short of an issue with them I don't see them getting replaced. I'd like to get the black OEM rims a la below, but not going to drop the cash for now. It will happen though...

 

Welcome and the OEM MINI wheels that are above are the R111 Black Bullets made by BBS if I remember right,

R111 Black Star Bullet Wheel 17" (4x100) Black Turned 36116784124

If you are looking for wheel deals / sales : the 4x100 lugs are the ones that will fit. So everything but those countryman / pacman dish wheels.

Welcome....please browse this sight with an unhealthy passion. I could have made about 15 less mistakes if i would have.
