Just wanted to say Hi to all the other members.

Just got a (new to me) 2008 Mini Cooper S hatchback and I am eager to learn more
about it thru all the friends I hope to make on this forum :-)

Welcome to NAM. Any pictures?????????

You have the N14 engine so be sure to change the oil every 5,000 miles and then remember to change the oil every 5,000 miles.

Welcome to the forum. Keep a spare quart of oil in the boot at all times and make sure you check the oil at least once a week.
