new mini-s guy + rally

Hello,
In 1968 I test drove a new mini cooper s and have wanted one ever since. Well after a long wait for them to become available (new) again I finally picked up a new one last Saturday. Love this car!!! Breaking it in gently with TLC, and awe! Do any of the local clubs (local being DC area) run any of the TDS or gimick rallys these days?

This is a great site, see you out there on the motor ways!

WooHoo! Yay! What are your specs? Where did you buy it from? And did you pay MSRP? Who's your motoring advisor? All those seems like silly questions possibly, but you'll be amazed at how much that info is shared around here. Welcome to NAM! I waited 18 months to get my MC, I thought my wait was long!

Glad you're here! Have fun motoring with the rest of us!

We bought the car a Mini of Towson, Maryland at MSRP. It actually had everything that I would have ordered less LSD but didn't want to wait for just that. She's Dark Silver / black top and stripes with performance, convience, cold weather, primium pack and navigation...fairly loaded. Love the car! Hope to get some pictures soon for posting. Thanks for the response. Been spending way too much time on this site, need to get throught the breakin miles.

Welcome to NAM, 05mini-s...congrats on the new MINI. Too bad ya didn't dive into the Mini world back in '68...


I'm also a customer of MINI of Towson, but 80 miles away. Check out the local club at dcmetrominis.org. They have a lot of gatherings, and are always looking for new ideas like TDS and gimmick rallys...come join in!
