Hello from a long time lurker

Hi all,

I guess I looked over this portion in all my lurking. Been a mini owner since 2011.

We currently have
2018 Countryman S All4
2006 Cooper S /auto
2006 GP #1650

Been to Mini on the Mack every time since 2013. Hoping to make it to a Minis on the Dragon here soon.

We hail form southwest MI.
This is from Mini on the Mack making our way back through tunnel of trees

Welcome, Nice GP. I went there a couple of years ago, that's a far trip to the top of MI.

Great pics! It must be hard to keep that lip spoiler alive on the street! (even adjusted up!)
Sure wish I could find a Nice 06 GP at some point!

Its not too bad just have to take it slow and factor in the approach angles. I have smacked it a couple of times and most recently the bolts backed out on the way home from Mini on the Mack so I need to redo the setup and get new supports.

I look atleast a couple of times a month to see if there are any out and about. Next might be the GP2 or possibly the GP3 but we will see what the misses thinks about a bunch of "toy" cars in the garage.

Hi BootMKR,
It is tough when you are married, as it slows our need for toys! I get that! It does sound like you are keeping a balance though!
Your mate likes Mini Coopers and that is more than half the battle. the fact that you have three and of course a GP, proves she allows your fetish! LOL
