Hi I'm new to the forum today!

I am the new owner of a 2005 Hyperblue Mini with only 22K on it as of July. I am really excited about having such a great resource as this to get me through the next 8 years with this baby as that is the next time I will be able to by a car given two kids in college/grad school which I know is a great problem to have so I am not whining.

I am recovering from my first act of Mini vandalism as someone took both of my badges over the weekend but I have some on order from the dealer so I'll get over it unless I see one of my daughters friends with Mini badge earrings or bracelets next time I am visiting.

Congrats & welcome to this big ole crazy family! If you find someone wearing your MINI badges as jewelry - brand it into their hyde! Sorry for the vandalism...I seem to be reading a lot about keyed cars, stolen badges, and other random, senseless acts on our treasured rides. Sad & Stupid !!! Enjoy the ride!
