Whattup fellow MINI enthusiasts! I'm a college kid who lives about 3 hours from home. I've been obsessed with MINI's since my Dad bought his BMW in 2003 and I got to test drive a Cooper S while we were waiting. My parents are making me transfer back to the city of Chicago so I can stay at home and commute there. My Dad said it was to save money, so I gotta transfer for next year. So imagine my surprise when I went home this past weekend and my Dad took me to a local MINI dealer and bought me a brand spankin' new 2007 MINI Cooper S!!!!!! GOOD LORD! I don't think ive smiled that hard for that long. Satying at home more than makes up for a new Cooper S... Thanks Dad!

 

Is he into adopting another kid ?? Wow...congrats!!!

 

LMAO WOW!!

 

They're making you move home to save money but then go and buy you a $25,000 car? But either way a congrats is in order. I wish my parents would have bought me mine.

 

Welcome to NAM!! Enjoy your new ride,but be careful out there!!!

Welcome and congrats on your new MCS. Thanks dad indeed!

 

Wow, what a cool dad

 

Yeah he said it was to save money, but it was actually so we could afford the Coop. Sounds like a good deal to me
