First Mini

Hi all, just bought my first Mini, 08 Hatchback. It's been to bad out to drive much, I live in central Indiana so alot of snow cold and salt. I purchased it as a week-end car and not a daily driver. This site looks like a great resource for information and help. It has a good service record and 42000. I think I'll order a Bentley Manual.

Hi BrilliantC, I have an old pick-up and my parking lot at work is brutal, so easy decision. Thanks for the welcome. You ever go up to Dryer and look around?

Yes, we were up there not too long ago car shopping. They had a lot to choose from. We ended up working with MINI of Louisville online and got a much better deal. Our new Countryman is currently at the port awaiting on a ship.

Welcome from another Hoosier. Hope the weather clears up for you soon as I have family I need to visit in Indy. We just got the updated Bentley Manuals in stock if you need to order.

Thanks for the welcome, that's as good a price on the Bentley Manual as I've found. I need to check out your site and see what else I need.
