Greetings from Vermont

Hello there. Three days in now on the purchase of a '17 Cooper S hatch, volcanic orange with hood stripes and sunroof. Although since it's literally 5 degrees here, not so much sunroof yet. But this is my first MINI and I'm basically obsessed already.

Welcome! Sounds like a fun car!
I occasionally make it up to Vermont for work, Burlington is a neat city.

Welcome and congrats! I'm about a few weeks in on my third Mini Cooper, also volcanic orange, but a convertible. Enjoy!

Here she is on the way back from the dealership
Yeah, she's buried under the snow now. Going to dig her out in the morning.

Congrats on the MINI. How much snow did you get up there? Do you have snow tires?

About 18 inches. Not a lot of fun at a time when you're expecting winter to wind down.

I haven't bought snow tires. I suppose I will this fall for next winter, but we don't have to drive the MINI in the snow and I spent enough money on this last week.
