Hello Everybody been a member of the Forum for some time now but this is my first post. The Forum has been a major source of information thank you all. I have been a mini enthusiast forever but an owner for 2 years. I have taken my mini to autocross events, local track days. (lookup BIR Proving Grounds) and loved every minute of ownership. I recently feel like i just lost a good friend. I was stopped waiting for a pedestrian to cross the road and a Jeep ran right into me. Sorry to be long winded but want to say hi and share my mini.

 

Heres a few more and a salute to my lost friend.....

i had custom local shop exhaust all the graphics i did myself, wmw 15% pulley reduction, drop in k&n, nkg iridium plugs to go with the 15% pulley. best car i've ever owned and looking for another R53..

 

She is beautiful. Sorry for your loss. I have found my favorite thing about my mini is all the customization And little personal touches I can do for it. It'll be a sad day when I lose mine. Hope you can get another one soon
