New MINI owner here: 2005 S JCW

Hi guys,

Just checking in on the forums after acquiring a (new to me) 2005 Mini S w/ the JCW package.

6-Speed of course, Jet Black, some little cosmetic stuff.

I came from a 400HP AWD Audi that emptied my wallet (both happy spending and sad spending, but mostly sad spending). I blew through transmissions, turbos, and ever else could possible go wrong with the car. So I sold that and looked into buying a go cart and here I am.

I bought another car so I would STOP spending money on performance parts and focus on my motorcycle racing, but it looks like I got into the wrong game. I just got off eBay, spending some $$$ on her already.

Bike for sh*ts and gigs!:


Looking forward to contributing to the forums. I was a avid poster on my past car forum (much more active forum than all the MINI forums combined!) so hopefully I can find and give some good info.
