Congrats on your new MINI.

Please come and join us. There will be couple of events in the next few weeks, that I'm sure you will enjoy.

Next week is also great, it is our monthly breakfast meet at TATE MINI in Annapolis.

Hi All. After joining y'all on the Spring Fling Rappa edition, I have decided to join. I have an '06 JCW MCS in Space Blue. His name is Buddha and he is a cheeky bugger. Hope to be able to join more of the events!

Hello to everyone

Hi everyone,

My husband Mike and I (Shannon) joined the club a while back. We became the proud owners of a 2007 MCS BRG/W that we are doing a few modifications on. Looking forward to making it to some of the events this summer.

New (to me) MCS owner here

Hello everyone, I'm Ray and I purchased a 2002 MCS from a member on Friday, just wanted to introduce myself here. If you see a dark silver/black top mini w/ California tags (for only a couple weeks, soon to be VA tags) and black rims in the area (I'm located in Alexandria) don't hesitate to wave.
