First time Mini owner, long time NAM reader: 2012 Mini Countryman S

Hey there everyone!

just bought a 2012 CMS 6 speed a little bit ago, and while I loved the car, I wanted a bit more performance. After a few google searches, the NAM forum popped up, and I have been reading it ever since.

I am still biding my time (and money) for mods, but I am hoping that I can start soon!

Anyway, I am looking forward to being a member and contributing to this awesome community.

Welcome, as you can see marioKart has really modded the Countryman nicely. So you can really change it up.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! Apologies for the late response; I tend to stay away during school months. This forum can be quite distracting.

Hoping for a great 2019 for all of you and your familys'!

When I was in college, distractions made it all that much better. I guess I had a bad attitude. Probably would have never made it through if the Internet had been around.

Welcome.
