Two Longish Drives & Joy!

Picked up our Cooper Clubbie in March of this year and have driven it round-trip from Tucson to Denver, and Tucson to Seattle and south on 101 and the '1' to So. Cal and back to AZ.

We've got a bit over 7k on the Odo - no problems to report. Ours is automagic with a Hot Chocolate interior and Pepperwhite exterior. Driving at more-or-less legal speeds we see 33-36 mpg.

It's a keeper


Our other car is also a MINI. MCa Cooper in Oxygen Blue.

Sheesh, I drove up the 101 (from orange county) to Monteray, and down the 1 to cambria and back down to southern calif, I thought MY trip was long (700 miles or so total) - but wow, and yeah indeed ours is a keeper too, got 3k miles or so racked up already!

congrats! :-D

Nice. We have over 15K miles on our '09 PW...it will be a year old next month! That's a lot of fantastic driving!
