Second MINI, first post

Hi all,

I've had an '04 R53 with a six-speed, and now a '13 R55 Clubman S Bond Street with an automatic, which is now for sale. Riotously fun cars, and this site has helped me maintain and understand them better. Thanks for all you do!

Here's the '04. We lived a couple miles down a township road and got some deep, heavy late season snowfalls. Plowed snow the whole way and collected quite the nose cone. With Blizzaks, traction control, and the stickshift, this thing was like a tank!

Welcome to NAM.

I live in North Carolina where 2 inches of snow will close schools for a week. Yes a week.

Nice looking Gen1.
