Goodbye everybody!
Well, with great trepidation I pulled the trigger on a brand new Evo X yesterday. After 3 Coopers, (and not loosing a penny on any of them), 4 years of fun, I say good bye to a great group of enthusiasts, and think back at all the great times I have had in my Mini's. Keep motoring everyboday, and see you on the road. If you see a dude in an Evo giving you the thumbs up, that would be me!
Keep motoring!
RIP!

The oil leak looks like a man hole cover.

I hope thats a man hole!
Thanks for the comments, those are the 18 inch JCW rims, cool looking, but I hear the 17's are a bit more performance.
