Whos up for a Coffee meet ???

Im thinking friday this week, anytime after 6pm. Our usual location of Starbucks in Linden on Rte 1&9.

So who is in ???

UPDATE: We'll be meeting on Friday, Oct 5th around 6PM-ish at the Linden Starbucks ... Anyone can come anytime after that. No worries if you are running late, were usually there for awhile BS'ing and whatnot

Im also gonna bring the recently released "Mini Book" that i bought last week for anyone who wishes to loom through. Great reading material !

I don't think I can make it to this one because I'm dropping off my car at Morristown, so I don't know when I will be getting it back.

Well I just got a call from the dealership, they found the problem, but its no longer covered by warranty. So I'm not going to get it fixed. I should be able to make this one, so I can buy that pulley from you Vic.

There is some noise coming out at 1st gear from the clutch, and the dealership want over $2000 to fix the problem, so I decided to live with the noise. I can buy the clutch for $300 and attempt to do it myself or find a mechanic to do it cheaper.

Hey AstroMCS...

Just keep your eyes on this forum !!! I will be setting up another Coffee meet sometime next week. I get PM's sometimes from owners to "please email them" and let them know when the next meet is. But honestly, i cant keep up with the requests nor do i remember everyones email adress so its just easier for everyone to check here. That and here we can get some feedback and try to accomodate everyone and set up a date and time that will agree with most owners

I live in Kearny also, and I will most likely be back home this weekend to wash my car again. But I haven't really noticed your car yet. I don't really see that many MINIs in Kearny. I live by Washington School. You?
