Hello From Jacksonville Fl.

Hello All, I hope all is well

Last mth I purchased a used 2013 Mini Cooper / Black with 18,000 miles on it.
I haven't gone by a mini dealer yet for service, however I take it i should have no problem still using the 2 yr 36k miles maintenance coverage and the 50k mile warranty. Original purchase was 8/2013.. So I should be good till 8/2015 or 36k which ever comes first when it comes to maintenance. I Got a real good deal on it,, $14k (before tax, tags etc) At least I like t think I did lol..

I purchase the mini cooper because I needed a ECO daily Driver to start preserving the miles and SAVING gas on my other car that avg 11 miles per the gallon lol.. Its now a weekend warrior. The Mini allows me to do that and at the same time STILL HAVE FUN DRIVING. I am totally excited with it..

I am not new to the forum life.. I have been on Forums for over 7 yrs with previous cars and current car. I don't know much about Mini's so I am sure I will be doing about of reading and learning here..

Welcome to NAM, Eco-Bull and congrats on your new MINI. 11 MPG on your previous vehicle, I'm afraid to ask what it is.

Welcome, you shouldn't have any issue with the warranty transfer as the warranty stays with the car.

Sorry for the late reply.
Been traveling for work.

Thank you all for your welcome comments. Yes I am having soooooooo much fun driving the Cooper and I had no problem with warranty transfer.

So some have ask about the car I was getting 11 MPG.
I still have the car. It's now my weekend show car.
it's a fully customized 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8 with a 10lb Supercharger pushing 620 to the rear.

I met 4 of them last week at a car show that I was showing my Charger at.
All a great brunch of people,, Had some good laughs.

We joked about me going and buying the JCW #140 that one of them just traded in. lol
Not something I was wiling to do yet lol. hahahhaha..

We also found very funny how the car club I'm president o, is called jam (Jacksonville Automotive Muscle) and they call themselves jamm as well. (Jacksonville Area Mini Motors) lol..

Small world.
