Too much fun to ever rant

I'm new to NAM. However, we just sold our '03 CR w Black MCS with 49843 miles on it. The few things that needed fixing were always fixed by my dealer w/o a fuss, e.g. new leather for the driver's seat at about 35,000 mi. I live about 100 mi from the dealer, so it's not an easy haul. No way will I EVER consider driving a Toyota to be as much fun as driving the MINI. BTW - the MINI is often selected over our BMW 540. Now we're hoping INIW (#2) will arrive before MTTS is over!

Also got it from Schomp in Denver. You will be fine. Just get out and enjoy the car.

Look at them as informational and like an ongoing tutorial, so if you do have some issues, you'll have a starting point for diagnosis. And you can always come here to get help and feedback. Relax and enjoy your MINI!
100% agree!

When shopping earlier this year, I ran a google search on "why the MINI cooper sucks" and the page count was far less than "why the (any other car) sucks." Can I say that word here?

At any rate, there was one person who must have been pretty upset. Their review was posted word-for-word on at least a handful of locations (and more by now, certainly).
