Just got back from my one year service at Roadshow in Memphis...it went

great. Everyone at the dealership was helpful and nice. Todd, the SA, was a pleasure to do business with. I hate to admit it but my MINI only has 3500 miles in a year. Roadshow changed the oil and the windshield wipers, rotated the tires, upgraded the ECU to V-38 and made a minor programming change for the follow-me-home headlight option. No charge for any of this. Todd also printed out a map to help my wife and I locate a relatives house.

It was 91 degrees today with high humidity so I got a chance to see if the CPU upgrade helped the problem with starting off smoothly with the AC on full blast. It seems to be much improved, and general engine smoothness is also helped.

Roadshow had about 15 MINIs, both new and used in stock. I got a chance to check out the convertible. I really like the new "cool blue" color. The instrument panel chrome package also looks very good. You might know that after I spent $109 for a chrome ring for my tach and speedometer there'd be factory ones available that look better and cost less.

According to my OBC I got 34.5 MPG on the trip down and 35.5 on the return trip.

If you're interested in a MINI or MINI accessories check out Roadshow.
