New owner of a 06 mcs, my very first mini. I spent some time on this site even before purchasing the car and it was already helpful, so I figured it would be a good idea to join while I'll be doing some maintenance work/etc on this little guy! Looking forward to learning plenty more on this site and contributing as well

 

First thing to know is that we need pictures.

Congratulations. What part of NJ?

 

Only have one picture so far, when it was being towed after purchase. Also I'm in north NJ, Bergen County.

 

Pretty. I'm also from NJ (Middlesex county).

 

Hudson County here.

 

Glad to see a few of you from NJ. Maybe we can all start a thread to gripe about the state of the roads here (...if it doesn't exist already)

 

A new coworker relocated from Michigan. He said Michigan is known for having terrible roads, especially due to the weather. He had to concede that Jersey roads were worse (but I still say that NYC roads are the absolute worst).

 

Welcome and congrats on the R53. Looks like they went for the checkmate design checkers on the side.
