Looking forward to good info and to hit the road with others on some Mini events.
Ordered my wife her Mini 4door S a couple weeks ago (stats I put up a couple days ago in another thread). Hopefully it arrives by the end of June so we can take advantage of the 1k certificate we received.
Like my username says we also have a Jeep and love to hit the trails with family and friends too.
Just love driving and exploring our wonderful planet on and off the road!

Welcome to the MINIacs!

Lots of great back roads and trails in SoCal.

But nothing beats a nice road trip to Carmel by the Sea for Sunday Brunch.

Motor on!

You think "It's a Jeep thing, you wouldn't understand" means something, wait till you get into the MINIs! There has been a Jeep in my family for 50+ years. Every time I sold one I went right back out and bought another one, until I bought my MINI. Don't get me wrong, I still miss my Jeeps but now the MINI has removed that empty space I used to have in my heart.
Welcome to the World of MINI!

The only way they will get me to give up my jeep is if I'm dead.
The mini is the wife's, trading in her 2013 Altima to get it.

Will have to do that now that it's official.
And Ended up leasing one for my daughter as well. (Too good of lease programs right now. )

Her fist car was an orange focus zx3 i named Nemo. This one should be named Dorey. But she is adamant that it not be named Dorey. I think it looks like Dorey. We shall see who wins.
