Welcome from Austria

Hey all,

First post. First Mini. I'm an Egyptian living in Austria. Just got my first Mini yesterday. A 2003 Red R50. I really didnt expect a non sports car to be this much fun. Looking forward to getting to know you all.

Long time petrolhead and amateur racer. Other cars I've owned are in chronological order; a 2006 Citroen C4 Coupe, a 2007 Porsche Boxster S, a 2010 BMW 330, and finally, a 2003 Mini Cooper.

Without further ado, there she is

Welcome to NAM! Looks like a clean R50! Great collection of vehicles you've owned as well. If you ever need anything please don't hesitate to let me know.

Very nice R50. MINIs are about as sporty as cars get! Few can out handle this car. You are in a great place, with many scenic places to drive! Linz, right? On the Danube (Donau Fluss). Totally lucky.

Welcome.


Motor On!


... that whole region has great roads to drive. I spend a lot of time around the Bodensee, from Meersburg, Lindau, Bergenz, and Romanshorn.




Nice looking car.
