My Super Cooper Cross-Country Adventure! (pics)
Hi folks!
I'm new to the board and to MINI ownership! :smile:
Earlier this month I purchased a used '03 MCS and drove it from New Hampshire to California. Thought I'd share a few photos from the drive which, all-in-all, was 3,796 miles in 7 days. :D
Whoever hasn't done this yet really should try it, I saw and experienced alot that I probably never would've seen otherwise... so get out and motor people!

My first meeting with the Mini in NH:
