X for a MINI

Moved from Cali to Houston and traded in my 4X4 Supercharged Xterra for a base MINI Cooper. don't go offroading anymore and the fuel prices.... 'nuff said.

its been a month now since i got my MINI... and what can I say - its been a blast!

Discovered NAM today, when I had a question on premium vs. super gas, and found my answers here!

great site.

Motor On!

Awesome

I found it in a very similar way. Mostly I just read all of the posts by the very smart people on their board. Very infomative.

I sold a Nissan X-Terra for my '06 MCS. The X wasn't bad, but as I always said when asked about it: "it doesn't give me any trouble, but it doesn't give me wood."

My Mini, on the other hand, gives me wood and a permanent smile.

I only kept the '01 Xterra when I bought the Mini because:
1. Towing a boat.
2. Hauling stuff (dogs, canoe, bikes, etc.)
3. Drive it when the Mini has just been cleaned and it's going to rain.
