Hi Everyone!

I just got back from vacation, so if you sent a payment for a new membership or renewal it will be processed in the next couple of days. I haven't had a chance to go through all of my email/PMs yet.

Hi All!!! Newbe here, my partner and I just joined the DCMM as a couple membership.. Just downsized from a Dodge Ram to a 08 Clubman and do we love it (kinda of miss the Ram, but I will get over it). Has anyone else had problems with Tate Mini of Annapolis Service Department or is it just me?

Welcome..welcome..welcome.. , and congrats on your new Clubman.

You won't miss the Ram for long.

Btw, Tate is in the transition of improving (overhaul) their service and other departments. It should back on track soon.

Hi everyone -
just purchased a used 2005 Mini Cooper S (Green, black top and mirrors) last week from DARCARS in Silver Spring. LOVE driving the car, lots more room than I thought, and very well designed.

Unfortunately, I have had three problems in just the one week I have had it:
- bonnet/tailgate light remains on
- flat tire monitor system isn't working (constant yellow light)
- just today,the EML light came on (electronic functions) and I can't get to over 10 mph

Luckily, I got Darcars to agree to pick it up and fix it - and it's under the original warranty until 2009. So hopefully I can get it back soon - I hope it's not a lemon, but if it is, just driving this one has convinced me to try and hunt down another one

Bob

You've found the right place to ask questions and get good answers. If someone in our club can't give you an answer to a problem, they sure know where to go to get an answer. Welcome to the club. Hope you get your MINI back soon and you can Motor On?

New member - saying hello...from Bowie. Purchased a MCCS several weeks ago and love driving "Bubba". After a rough start (engine light aka..High pressure fuel pump), I ahve racked up some miles..went to Annapolis, took some pics..and drove around on 450 for some twisties..until the slow pokes got in the way.
I promise to wave at any MC I see!

Welcome new peeps. Hope to meet you soon. Minitao, just send a PM to Greencactus. I think she can add your screen name. I think they only need it so they can put it on your name tag
