Traded in a '99 Mitz 3000GT for my MCS. What a dog the Mitz was.

 

2001 Black Pathfinder LE.....a spectacular SUV....
traded it in for a
2002 MCS....... also....a spectacular car....

Peace,
D

I traded a Chili Red and White Cooper(3/02) for
an Electric Blue and White S(9/02).

 

Great to hear d-mini-ero, another ex-SUV owner.
My previous ride was a 2002 Jetta TDI purchased in sept 01. Didn't take me long to get tired of diesel power.

 

1966 british Ford Cortina
1990 VW Corrado G60

We didn't sell anything - we just added to the collection Can't help it - we both LOVE cars

 

Still own my Ford F150 Step side, Not a practical car for Germany so I had to get a MCS too. Not that the truck dosn't cruise at 85-90 real nice, but changing lanes is the national past time over here every time you pass a Police car you switch to another lane and accelerate. :smile:

2001.5 VW Passat, still.... I feel like a Frosted mini wheat commercial. The sensible side won't let me get rid of the passat, but the fun side of me says "Let's Motor!" :smile:

 

sold a 2001 VW Jetta. Only had 6500 miles and was starting to have troubles already including a transmission replacement

 

sold a 2001 VW 1.8 Tubo Jetta. Only had 6500 miles and was starting to have troubles already including a transmission replacement

 

Gave up the '84 BMW 318i (only took 3 tries before I found a charity to accept it as a donation ) for the MCS. Still keeping the '87 Honda CRX Si (Improved Touring race car), '95 Jeep Grand Cherokee (tow vehicle - but it goes to car #2 status in favor of the MINI), and my wife's still kepping her '02 VW New Beetle (got to love the whole retro driveway look).

 

A 86 Toyota MR2 with 199k, I was hoping to see 200 but I missed it by that much. Like the 318 owner it took a couple of tries before I found a charity to give it to. :smile:

 

RKMaroon - your first post! You're gonna like it on MCO for sure. We never sleep - just talk and drive MINI!

I gave up a 2000 Celica GTS with VVTLi and 6 speed. Great car - my 3rd Celica in 9 years.

I don't miss it. The MCS Rocks!!!!!!

 

It's amazing the number of Dodge Caravans on this thread...

I traded in my 2001 Ford Escape XLT for my soon-to-be-delivered Mini Cooper; still have my '98 Dodge Caravan and '67 Lancia Fulvia Sport. As is my policy, all the cars are green!

 

i had a vw jetta gti until it got wrote off 3 weeks after i ordered my MCS.
