Picked up a 2012 R55 S in Highclass Grey/Polar Beige with most options this past Monday. Just under 40k miles.

Its the first Mini for us. We're looking forward to maneuvering a smaller car around in the city.

Still getting her all cleaned/shined up. Hood stripes are a little discolored, but everything else is looking very nice.

No photos yet. Maybe this weekend.

 

Congrats, and welcome to NAM and the world of MINI Motoring! You have many years and miles of grins ahead of you. Yes, please post some pix when you can. Did the prior owner make any mods? When you're ready, be sure to ask. We've been doing this for over 40 years for the street and track, so can help answer your questions.

In the meantime, here are a handy service & maintenance, along with performance upgrade guides.
