Nice pictures, what kind of camera are you using?

Welcome to NAM. You like your MINI more than your girlfriend??? Whew! OUCH! Don't ever let her know that. It could bad for you and the car.

The camera is a Nikon D70S and the lens I was using is a Nikon DK 18-70mm
(It's my other baby)

About the girlfriend thing, We were driving along one night and she said you love this thing more than me. So I said umm it gives me just about as much joy as you do. So she was ok with it :)

Life is good :)

Welcome & great pics :thumbsup:

Just curious which Yokohamas you have & how you like them. I am gonna ditch my runcraps in a few months & I am torn between Goodyear Eagles & Yokohamas. I used to have Yoko low profile tires on a Honda CRX I had years ago & they were great (plus they are a hec of a lot cheaper than the Goodyears :nod: )

Thanks :)

They are the AVS ES100 2nd set Great tires.
The first set lasted about 20,000miles the way i drive.
The runcraps that came on it only lasted around 16,000

sorry to hear about the incident.

I have always wondered how many MINI owners are bike riders (motorcycle that is).....

shanlon 04-17-2006 05:49 PM
