Finally a true member

Been lurking the mini forums since 07 when I thought I was getting a mini. Sad to say that didn't happen and 11 years pass...
Recently I got another opportunity to get a mini, Nothing new but new to me. Did some craigslist and FB marketplace searching and came across this beauty.
2005 mini cooper S - liquid yellow!!
She's got a bumper and hood ding but plan to take those out in the next few days. The previous owner still had the leather manual case and manual, which was a super plus in my book, not something you find still. There is also a small case tucked next to the battery which I think is a tow hook but I will have to confirm. Anyhow wanted to show and say hello. I will be here even more now that I truly have a mini..

Hi and welcome to NAM!
You can get a new headlight spray cover on Ebay, for the right price. It will fall off again, you will never need them there, so just clear silicone them in!
You have the nice drilled (and maybe slotted rotors! Two piece wheels and the good headlights. You can get them back to clear, pretty easily!
Congrats!
