Hi! I have owned my 2005 MINI since Feb. She is called Christine. I love her to death. I am worried about costs down the road but my love for this car overpowers that fear. I have never been "into" cars until they started making the mini cooper again. I am glad that I am finally part of the club


I just started reading this forum yesterday and I cannot get offline now. My goal is to turn my mini into a lil gothmobile. Ha!

This was taken the day I bought her. I would love to hear suggestions to make her better!

 

Congrats and welcome

 

welcome and glad u love yr MINI..

 

Well, the good thing is you'll have to get offline to turn Christine into that gothmobile!

Congratulations and welcome to NAM!

 

Yea, another R50 Owner, is it an auto or stick? There are a few things you can do to enjoy driving, it's not going to cost you an arm and leg like our "S" friends.

 

It is automatic. I would have preferred to have stick BUT this car was everything I wanted besides the auto trans. This car is fun to drive and has tons of power as is!

 

Hey congrats! The car looks very nice, I'm sure it will be the gothmobile in no time...hrm perhaps a batman emblem on the back window

 

Just occurred to me that perhaps you didn't mean batman when you said "gothmobile." Ignore the last post if you didn't lol

 

That is ok. It made me giggle!!
