Hi from Atlanta

Hello all. I'm a new member here and a proud new owner of a Pepper White '12 Clubman S. It has fair mileage (87k) on it and is in immaculate condition. This is my first Mini though I have been wanting one for about 10 years now.
There isn't a lot to say about myself other than I am a father of three gorgeous kids w/ a beautiful wife. As I said, we live near Atlanta, GA though we are originally from Pittsburgh, PA (born and raised).

I'm reading the Gen 2 and R55 forums to try and get an idea of what to expect. So far, I love this little car! I'll post up some pics when it stops raining long enough here to get some good ones.

Thanks! I'd love to bring my car by to have it looked at. I don't think there are any problems but it would be nice to know for sure. I typically do all of my own work, but the Mini is completely new to me (I'm used to Honda, Toyota, old Ford 4cyl and Chevy Trucks)...

Just adding a couple of pics. The Empire logos are my first addition (of hopefully many). They just looked like they belonged there. Still trying to decide on bonnet stripes or not... thoughts?

I like how they painted the strip white and black. My JCW Clubman just has the black strip, which you'll see if you come by.
Also I have a complete already painted Pepper White JCW body kit that would be killer on your car.
