Congrats on the new addition! I'm a month in, with 2600 miles on the odometer and having a blast! I'm sure you will too, just try not to get too addicted to it. I have problems daydreaming at work about going through twisties.

Welcome aboad! That's sounds like a real nice MINI you've got there. You'll have to put some pics up so we can all drool together. Check out the Ashveille Meet and Eat thread if you feel like doing some motoring in the mountains this weekend.

Congratulations on the new arrival. Check out the Charlotte club meet & eat on Tuesday night, the 19th, at the Roasting Company. There will be quite a few of us there and we can officially welcome you. We meet the 3rd Tuesday night of every month at a different restaurant around town.

Welcome!

Hello again and welcome!
FYI, I try to catch the Columbia Meet and Eats so if you'd like to go with me, let me know. I usually leave Chlt around 4-4:30 back by 11.

Boy and you think I have high mileage on my MINI..
At your current rate you will have 31,200 after one year, I only had 24,000 after my first year.
