Hi, all.

Have had my '03 Indi Blue Cooper a month now here in Chicago. Naturally, I got it just in time for the blizzard, so it sat in the garage a while. (Tough waiting.) The wait had more to do with my unfamiliarity with driving than any lack of confidence in the car. Haven't owned a car in 20 years. Bought this one to visit my daughter who lives with her mom in one of the burbs. Couldn't handle the commute from downtown Chicago. Looking forward to learning lots more about my new car from you all.

Cheers,

Tony

 

Well welcome to the "FOLD". This is a great community and a place for info. BTW what a great car to end your 20 years... I live in a place where it is almost impossible to do that I couldnt even imagine.

 

Tony,

Welcome to NAM

20 years without a car and then to get a MINI. Nice. Congratulations!

 

Thanks very much. Probably should have mentioned that I am a pretty active bicyclist, too. Noticed your Livestrong note. I have my yellow bracelet as well.

Cheers,

Tony

 

Tony,

Welcome to NAM and congrats on your MINI.

20 years without a car you must have either lived out of the country or in New York City

:smile:Thanks for your note. I have lived in downtown Chicago on the lakefront the whole time. I walk, like to ride my bike and would rent a car when absolutely necessary.

Cheers,
