I took the plunge and went from R53 to a R52!

I have been looking for a convertible for quite a while and stumbled upon this gem. It is a 2008 R52, but what makes it so special is that it is number 86 of 100 of the last supercharged Minis built. So far I love it!

I can't wait to get out and motor with you guys soon!

Hey Brandon, that's one slick looking convertible you got there.

You ought to come on out to the Fall Fun Run this Saturday and break it in properly. Looks like its going to be a nice weekend for top down driving.

I've never ridden in a MINI convertible, but I've heard they're a blast. The R52 you bought is a premium specimen .

What is the event going on at the Speedway this weekend? Does it have to do with the yellow vehicle parked in front of the black Mini?

This weekend is the Mustang Club track day. And unfortunately I will not be taking the bike out there.

My husband Steve has been out there for bike track days - and wadded one up too - but that's another story for another day...
