Now that is a lot of CR cars. I'm seeing a lot CR cars in my neighborhood. It is by far the most popular color that's for sure. I like my car today as much as the first day I brought it home. It's still a great vehicle. I'm at 24K now and it runs like a charm. My wife's car is at 34K and hers runs like a charm though she did have to have the new valve train installed due to the cold start issue. But since then runs like a champ.

Gooooo MINI!!

Regards,

Pat

Picked up my new-to-me ride this past Tuesday. It's an '04 Red/White S JCW and Aero Kit. This is the car I should have ordered six years ago. I'm beside myself that I found it for sale after looking for a Cooper for less than 24-hours.

Couldn't be happier. Has 68K miles and is loaded up and has been very well taken care of, and am looking forward to putting another 68K on it!
Looking good! I've added you to the growing list, welcome.

It's Official

Ok, I picked up my brand spank'n new 2011 Chili Red MCS with only 4miles on the odo. Last night. Drove home from Hartford CT to RI. Great fun and was able to hear the pop, pop on the down shifts. Best of all was the way the xenons light up the road once it got dark. I want in to this owner' club. Please get me added to the list. I'll be back with pictures shortly. Yea, first mod will be the clear bra on the bumper and 1/3 up the hood on Monday morning. I'm thinking I may call this car Grin, because I just can't stop smiling.

To be honest, driving on the road is not a problem, when you drive aggressively on the highways other cars have lights one etc, I don't have an issue. But sometimes when I am turning to a street or parking lot with low lighting I do lower the window to make sure I am seeing right or if I am trying to focus on a house number or something like that. But I have no issues with normal driving.

WELCOME! MINI Cooper S's are fun to drive aren't they? Glad you chose the proper color, Chili Red.
