Newbie from Colorado

Hello Everybody.

We are new to this site and forum and are the proud owners of a 2003 Blue & White Mini Cooper S named Olivia. Olivia is rather unique in the metro Denver area (where we live), since she is the only one we have seen (so far) with a full sized Hawaiian State Flag on her roof (a Christmas gift from husband to wife). She's not getting much driving done lately, since she is in desperate need of some new tires. But, we will be driving her to the AMIV get-together in Las Vegas in March.

Olivia is the second Mini we have owned. When we lived in England from 1991-1994 we owned a 1974 Mini with a 1 litre engine that had been hand painted blue with a paint brush. It was not a specimen worthy to import into the US, but was a fun little car to drive.

Also new (in Colorado)...
We just got back from picking up my wife's new mini Cooper S convertible from Kansas City!!!!
We visited the Denver dealership, but there is/was a long waiting list and my wife wanted her car soon. I called the dealerships throughout the midwest and found her 2006 Cool Blue mini....we flew to KC on Saturday morning and started the drive back to Colorado Springs. It was a long drive, but worth every minute.
We cannot wait to take the mini up into the mountains for the first time...maybe this weekend!
