New owner in MD 05 Cooper s black

I have been looking at minis for a while and found this one in August. I put brake pads all the way around. And replace the passenger side CV axel and went through inspection no problem . It has 135000 mi but it came with a lot if receipts. Clutch power steering pump struts super charger service. I do all mi own work . Runs great. No leaks. Looking forward to learning more about this car. Thank.

Welcome from Texas! You're lucky the supercharger service has already been done. Most used MINIs lack that maintenance (seems like that's about the time everyone decides they need a new car) and it's a real PITA to do. Overall though, a MINI is quite easy to work on so I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Welcome to the forum and MINI ownership. I am also in the neighborhood in the far northern Maryland suburbs.

Do you have any pictures to share?
