I've got a 01' wolfsberg jeta (1.6L turbo)that is turning out to be a great car, and handles well in winter conditios too.

I really am a novice regarding the Mini. No dealers around her (Yakima, Wa), and I've not seen one. Although we do have a BMW dealer, but it sounds like Mini's are a separate line, so not every BMW room has access.

anyway, can you give me a perspective/comparison of the two cars. Area they substancially different, plusses and minusses, etc...

Thanks for any feedback.

Looks like our first unofficial meeting in the NorthWest will be tomorrow morning at Golden Gardens, 9:00 on September 7. Anyone driving a MINI, waiting for a MINI, pining for a MINI, etc., is welcome to show up!

Looks like you had a pretty good turn out for your first meet. Is there any Portlanders out there the want to put a meet together, or am I the only one here?

I live in Seattle and have a new MINI coming in January...is the only place to get service in Tacoma?? Or can I take it to a BMW dealer?? As mine has the CVT I anticipate some trips to the dealer (especially if it is from the time of bad transmission oil..)

Welcome to MCO!
yes, Tacoma is the place - unless you can get to Richmond or Portland ... don't even try to go to the snooty BMW guys - they don't want to know anything about MINIs...
Check ClubMINI@yahoogroups for the latest news ... local drive Jan.25th!
