Hey All!
Thought I'd introduce myself since I'm thinking I'll be here for a bit 😊
Long story short, I picked up a pepper white '14 S manual to drive as a fun car until my ordered vehicle arrives (not a Mini).
I've always loved Mini' s but never owned one and figured it was the perfect time to try one. Well, we fell in love with Pepe so hard, after a week of ownership, we decided to keep it long term as a runaround fun car. But after a month of ownership, Pepe's very minimal tech got kind of annoying and we felt like we needed something with more creature comforts.
Enter New Pepe! The Mini dealer in our state had a huge selection, but in the end, it was another pepper white S we took home, but a 2020 model. Unfortunately, we lost the manual tranny and a little of the soul, tbh. But, we're excited to make New Pepe into a soulful little Mini just like Old Pepe! So begin the mods!
Already ordered the Dinan tuner. Working on a wheel/tire package, it'll need springs, already miss the HK from Old Pepe so Crutchfield is getting some of our cash. Should be fun!

I totally hear you there. But the car I have on order will be a manual, so all is not lost 😁
