New Guy from Pocono Mountains, PA

Hi Everyone


just purchased my 1st mini. A 2008 Base with the 6 speed. Picked her up for a good price and already was showing her some major TLC today (Oil change, Rad flush and new brake pads)

I have formerly been a stang fanatic. Owned over 40 Mustangs since 1988 and I am only 45... Lost y love for them when I was getting in and not getting that happy feeling while motoring around. Since i bought my mini on 07/25/2016, I can't seem to get enough.

I love it.

Since I am a noob to mini's I will be reaching out to the community for help and tips to keep her running tip top. Hopefully maybe attending some mini meets

Anyway, just wanted to say hi....

Wow! That's a bunch of ponies! Had a '66 Fastback that we modified with Shelby GT350 components. My brother sold it not too many years ago. My parents literally bought it off the floor at the Chicago Auto Show.

Know what you mean about not being able to get enough. Picked up my '04 MCS just a couple months ago and can't get enough. Cold Air Intake was already installed, so Sprint Booster was next. Here are a handy service and maintenance guide and performance upgrade guide that may help.

In the meantime, feel free to ask any and all questions. Welcome aboard!
