Where to get & service Minis in Little Rock?
I live in LR, am considering a Mini, and would greatly appreciate help: 1) Memphis seems the closest dealer--how are they? 2) Does anyone in town service them? Other service details, frequency, cost, etc.? 3) Custom ordering positive there, and how long does that take? 4) I commute 100 miles a day, and I'm 6'2--thoughts on both counts? Thank you!

Me likey! Is your car British Racing Green? Mine's an 06 MCS Cabrio, BRG with white stripes on the 'bonnet'. I have different wheels, but our cars are pretty similar. :thumbsup:

I really don't know what a Sidewalk is, honestly. I have seen a picture of my wheels on this site. I guess I should take a picture of my car and make it part of my sig, like you did. I have the paperwork I got with the car that lists what 'packages' it has. I just always thought Minis were cool. I was looking for a small car at a Mazda dealership local to me, and my GF saw the Mini. She thought it was way cool, too, so it came home with us. Thanks to this site, I found all the go-fast goodies for Minis, and they should start showing up soon. Later on, I'm gonna do some cosmetic stuff. And your stripes are just what I want. :thumbsup:

http://www.miniusa.com/learn-sidewal...arn/sidewalk-m Thanks for thumbs up!! |
I learned something Mini today. I had heard the term Sidewalk, but until today did not know what that was. Mine is not a Sidewalk version. It's just an S Cabrio. :)

Donnie's?
So is that the consensus for the MINI dealer alternative in Little Rock: Donnie's? Do they do any performance upgrades? Paint/body/audio?

Dean, Parker MINI will be opening in Little Rock sometime in Spring of 2013. It's a long overdue event, IMHO. I don't know exactly where they'll be, but it will be somewhere in West Little Rock.

Here's a resource full of links to everything MINI including independent MINI shops listed by State.
http://soopercooperinfo.com/ Also, to answer #4, I'm 6' even and find the MINI the most comfortable I've ever driven. Our longest transit to date is 14 hours and I wasn't fatigued from driving one bit. Drove my mother in law's big '08 Buick on a 4 hour drive recently and I thought my back and butt would never recover. |
Awesome, thanks for the replies! I'm looking forward to getting some serious work done and I need a trustworthy mechanic to help!

...oh yea, and we also expect to see you, top down wx permitting, at MITO next year. Be sure to sign up for 'Galen's Elk Run'.
