This was my first "real" car purchase, and I have been looking for the right Mini for months (Cooper S, manual transmission, right year/milage, color, etc.)

Just drove 7 hours round trip today to go see a used mini, and it was the one! A 2010 Mini Cooper S with 33k. So much reading to do, but first things first, have to get it all clean and shiny!

 

Looks sweet!! Congrats!!! I too drove 7 hours round trip for the right one! Good feeing!

 

Excellent. Know what you mean, searched a long time for mine! Congrats. Any mods already made, or ones you want to?

Welcome, nice color combo, looks like you have S winder wheels and white top with white stripes. Looks like someone did the window tint for you already,.

 

I don't think any mods have been done. The previous owners seem to have barely touched the car. To give you an idea, most of the accessories (cargo nets, usb adapter, etc.) were still in the factory bags and, according to the service records, the battery had to be replaced because they didn't ever drive it far enough to recharge it

Not sure where to even start honestly!

 

Congrats on your new to you, Mini Cooper S!
