Great capture, camera in your phone? 100K is a good thing and with mods.

Yes! Yes!

I like seeing this! I plan on keeping mine a very long time. It's a "hooked on my Mini thing".

That's the ticket !

I'm really excited to see that !!! I've driven vehicles over 200k and the plan is to keep the MINI for a lot of miles, also. It seems like they are up to the task when you look at the engineering that goes into them. It's fantastic to see someone actually clicking over the first 100K.

groovetini - Now that you have gotten there, is there anything you think should have lasted longer, or could have been maintained differntly ?

Peace !
Spearsy

Think Metric ...

For what it's worth (I had to use a calculator).
72000KM would be 44738 miles ...

Peace !
