Just bought a 2006 S from a forum member; been lurking for a few weeks while I looked for a car, so I guess it's time to chime in. I don't have many pics of it yet, but here's a starter
This is actually a first car purchase for my son, so he'll probably be on here soon looking for upgrades...
Hi and welcome to NAM! I hate to tell you this, but I sense another one is in your near future!
This one is arguably the best model first gen ever made! Make sure to only use synthetic oils.
Check out the Gen 1 section.
Congrats on this one and the next that is soon to come! LOL
This is actually our 2nd MINI; our first was a 2008 S we owned for about 1 week... The clutch failed 91 miles after we bought it (20 hours later) and so after fighting with the dealer a bit we got them to take the car back and give us our money back.
I do hope to get a 3rd sometime in the future so I don't have to steal my kid's car
