Hi all,
British gal that's lived in Massachusetts for 20+ years now that loves driving and working on her mini (2009 Cooper S). I'll post some pics later but hope to get to know you all and get some ideas on work/mods.

First car was a 1964 purple mini and have always loved the car.

Sue

Welcome, Sue!

If you haven’t already done so, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with Greasy’s Garage in Worcester. They can take care of any work that you don’t want to do for yourself.

Hi and welcome to the NAM family, Sue!
Keep the oild changed with full synthetic oil (Castrol is reccomended). Change it every 5000 miles, as your engine is known to carbon up the intake and valves.
We don't usually de-coke the head here, so you want to keep it well!
Welcome to the Mini Mainiacs (or Miniacs) group!
We would love to see some pics of your MCS!
