Welcome, any more pics. Looks like you have the AERO kit side skirts and in pepper white. Nice choice.

Congrats on your new MINI! You have many years of grins ahead of you. Recently picked up an R53 myself and just love it. Any mods planned, or already made? Most of our customers start with a cold air intake and then a Sprint Booster to solve the throttle lag:

Here's a handy service and maintenance guide to help you make sure everything is spot on:

Please feel free to ask any and all questions!

Drive Hard. Drive Safe. Keep Grinning.
