Greetings and salutations!

My wife and I will be purchasing an MC or MCS (I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this one) soon and will be joining your ranks. It would be her car and she's not really into the whole car club scene, but I definitely am. I'm part of the Nebraska Subaru Owner's Club, with a Stage 2 Legacy GT
Anywhoo, just wanted to drop in and say hi and also, if nobody minds, mention that we are still looking for a Mini, 2005 or newer, automatic. If any of you are selling, let us know

Finally picked up our Mini Cooper S. It's a 2006 in British racing green. Unbelievably fun to drive and practically brand new. Had to drive all the way from Nebraska up to Sparta Wisconsin so all in all we were up for about 18 hours straight, out of which 15 were spent driving. A pain in the neck but it was well worth it.
Unfortunately all I have is a crappy garage picture for now.
Wife made be verbally promise I will NOT MOD the car and I'm sure soon here she'll draft a contract and make me sign it in blood. Le sigh!

Brenengen Ford of Sparta Wisconsin was a GREAT dealership to work with. Scott Siver was our salesguy and if you're looking for something in the area, I would definitely give him a call first.
