I do need to thank everyone involved with the St. Louis MINI Club for putting on many great events. Every event has been a blast and well worth the drive. See you at Aug. 20th for the Winery run!

 

I would have joined you soon but the thought of 100k+ miles on my MINI so soon didn't really excite me. So I bought another car (05 Mustang GT convertible) to take the load of the MINI in the nice weather. I've now been stuck in the 70k mile range for what seems forever (74k+ total on MCS, just under 4k on Mustang in 7 weeks).

 

Well on Friday 8/19 at Pocono east track "THDUKE" rolled over the 100K mark it now reads 100408 miles after 3 fun days of track time this weekend at Pocono Raceway.

 

Congrats, dkstone! If I had driven some of the trips that I flew to the Southeast the past 3 years, I may have joined the 100K club by now, too. I'm only at 48,800+ in Wanda, my 2003 MCS.

I FINALLY made it!


Happened last night at 12:57 AM driving home from Disneyland.

WOOT!

 

Wow....that's great!!!

 

Congrats to all the folks who'd rather drive 'em than sit around and look at them. Keep on Motoring!

 

so when we gonna start a 200,000 mile club

im close to 130,000 thousand now

holy criky i just realized i just cramed 30,000 miles in about 7 months god were do these miles come from

i swear their must be gremlins taking my car out at night, witch would explain why my tank is always on empty

 

Thanks Christian, you give me hope. I've got 35000 in 14 months and feel kinda bad about putting on the miles. Oh well....bought it to drive, right?

 

Congrats to all of you!

 

you bet my dad curses me every time i tell him my milage, telling me no one will want it but then again i never plan on selling it anyway


basically as hard as i drove my car im still impresses how well its still works still starts every morning and still the stock origanal clutch and theirs no sighns of slipage so thats cool, im just in the market to find a pair of used drive shafts since mine are grinding and clicking so my mini is sorta parked right now, but that was caused when i hit a curb a year ago and replaced everything but the drive shaft

well it finally cought up to me

but everything else engine whise works fine
later

Congrats DBWILLDO on your 100K of happy motoring, now for the next milestone of 200K. Now that the season has started I will start to rack up the miles once more should hit 150K by mid summer now at 117K.

 

My 2003 MCS just got to 120 000km yesterday.

and it still run strong!

MINI just get better with use! lol

 

Wow! I'm not worthy. Only 12K miles since August. Sheesh.

You know, if the price of gas were lower, I know I'd be closer to 130K now

 

I'm almost there Currently 98k and some change. Should be at 99k by the end of next week, and just over 100k for AMVIV3

Congratulations , glad to see you got a photo all the way back at 20K here, I see theres lots more fun to come!

 

so you all have the original superchargers on your cars. i thought they were only rated to last around 100,000 miles? also anybody in a regular cooper with high miles out there. you all seem to be MCS owners.

 

i'm almost up there too. just hit 70,000 miles, my goal is to hit a 100,000 by the end of the year or maybe sooner

 

I made it to 100K this weekend

 

1 Norcal club member has 100K+ on his cooper (stock)

 

Sheesh, and I'm only at 17,000+ right now.
Loving every mile of it too. :-)
Congrats on 100k!

 

I'm getting there... I mean I might have a little ways to go yet, but I'm gettin there. Just hit 250 miles this morning

 

Good weekend for MINI's, I hit 100k on Friday .

Nik

 

Congrats all!

On my way to 115K now. Should hit it in just a few weeks!

 

That's great, Don! How's she doing? Still running great?
