I’ve been wanting a Mini for a while now. A relative has had an '04 Cooper S for years, and I always told them, “If you ever decide to sell, please give me the first shot.” Well, I finally got the call! The car needed about $3k in repairs, and they were ready to let it go.
Lucky for me, the car ended up being a gift! Plus, I’ve got a good friend who’s an awesome mechanic and works for beer, so he’s taking care of the repairs. The car’s on its way to him now, so fingers crossed, I’ll be driving it in about three weeks.
Anyway, excited to be here and can’t wait to learn more about the site and, of course, my new R53!
