Finally got me a Mini!!!

17 years ago I built several Mini's on their website dreaming of purchasing one. Only problem...I have champagne taste with a beer budget. LOL
Well 2 weeks ago I bought this beauty.

2012 Countryman S All4. Absolutely loaded. Everything except a sunroof and manual trans. Would rather had the manual but sometimes you have to make sacrifices. Has 124K miles so I took it to Mini to have it checked out. Per them it's in great shape. Just has a couple of oil leaks. Which of course I'm going to fix in a couple of weeks (parts ordered). So anyone with experience on changing the oil filter canister gaskets...PLEASE hit me up .

His name is BOB


Also upgraded the side marker lights already to LED's. One was broken. OH and I installed an eject button. LOL


Look forward to many years of motoring!!

Welcome to the forum and the MINI experience. I too spent considerable time building MINIs long before I bought one.
