A little bit of business, but is anyone really sane. I also had family up there which I don't see that often so I spent the holidays with them.
I also only saw one MCS on my trip but I saw it twice

Proud to be a 37,000 in a year and a half. I can't help it. It's more fun to drive than a car should be; plus CA is a big state.

Bumpin' an old thread ...

Just wanted to update/bump this thread as it is more than a year and-a-half/going-on two years old (and I suppose would actually apply more to 1st Gens?) - and as I'm looking to possibly purchase one of these vehicles.

Who's "leading" in mileage (miles driven) now? Hell why not throw-in your MPG's as well - just for grins!?!

Thanks in advance,
g ...

I have 83K+ on mine that Santa brought in 2002. I have been on some long drives up and down the right hand coast and a bunch of 11 mile drives on the Dragon. I thought I was doing good until I saw the 200k mileage. I love it just as much now as when Santa brought it.

Motor On Safely.

Thanks, oh and I missed the "200k mileage" post (was it in this thread??) - and BTW, I've gotta ask as I've seen it elsewhere on this Forum: "The Dragon" (?) - and "11 mile drives"? Can you help me out on these three question please ("200k mileage" included)?

Thanks Again,
Glenn ...

23k three and half year old R53 2005. Most of the mileage was done while in California in 2005. We now drive an average of 200-300 miles a month.

Ok, now, it doesn't take much for me - but I'm (a li'l) confused here (?) . "We" (you) "broke" (exceeded) 200K - right? And what year is the MINI? Automatic or Manual Transmission? "S" or 'just-ah'? (and what oil do you use please?)

Thanks in advance ...
