New to the Mini world, just acquired a 2008 Mini Cooper Hatchback
I have been a distant admirer for a while but was able to score a slightly used and abused mini cooper non-S in August I and the seller thought it might have a blown head gasket or possibly be seized engine. Turns out it was way over full on oil(about 3 gal in the engine).

Welcome to NAM! Congratulations on your purchase! Post up some pictures for us when you can. Any future plans with the MINI?

Not sure if this will work but I created an album for my 2004 Mini) I was told that 2004 was the last year that tan interiors were available?

I don't think it was the last year of the tan interiors.
Here is my 06 R53:
06 MCS JCW
They are pretty rare though!
You Mini looks great!
