Second MINI But This One's Mine!

My wife has been wanting a MINI for a while. Five months ago, we bought her a new Clubman and she absolutely loves it, and I have to admit I enjoy driving it as well. While shopping for the Clubman, the MINI convertible caught my eye. After several test drives, I decided to take the plunge and order a 2017 JCW convertible. Placed the order on May 22, and after a long five months of waiting -- picked it up on October 20.

After almost one week, I am having a blast driving it! Hopefully, a few more warm autumn days remain for some top down road trips!

I am happy to be a part of the forum. I have found a wealth of great information here.

Jim
