Hi From Belgium

Hello everyone,

First of all i would like to say sorry if my english isn't good sometimes, i live in Belgium and english isn't my motherlanguage.

I recently bought a Mini Cooper One (year 2003), in Black. And i am very happy with it. It seems to lack power sometimes, but i will be upgrading to a S, hopefully soon, if i can get the money together. But for now i still think my ONE is a blast to drive!! In the curves it feels like its on rails, but i don't have to tell you guys all that .

Well i hope i'm gonna learn alot from you guys, about this car.

Peace.

Welcome MiniBelgium, don't worry about your english, I'm a native, it's my only language and I still screw it up all the time

Welcome MiniBelgium! Does the "One" title automatically mean its a diesel? We cannot get the diesel in the US, but my wife and I had a VW new beetle with the TDI (diesel) and it was pretty gutless, too. I think you can't have performance and good mileage at the same time. Again, don't worry about the English, no one gets it right all the time! Welcome.

They (pics) need to be taken with a digital camera and saved to a folder you can find on your hard drive. If you have some photo software, you already know how to do this. If not, you need some. Then you create an attachment to your message and find the photo in the folder on your computer and click on that. Sounds simple, huh? Most times it is.
