Hi Everyone,

I've been faithfully reading NAM for a year and a half trying to learn everything I can about Minis. These forums have been a wealth of information I was able to use when I seriously started my search for my Mini. Many thanks to all of you who contribute to the Mini knowledge data base! Soooooo, I ended up finding a great deal on a loaded Laser Blue/Black 2007 MCS. Didn't think I could afford it, but over the space of a few months, Northwest Mini reduced the price quite a bit to the point that I just had to take a run at it. I took delivery on Saturday, but had to work the weekend. Today was the first day I've had to bond with the little guy and I had a blast driving around everywhere I could think of. Even gave Mom a ride in it - her eyesight is failing but she sure could see how fast we were going with that big speedo . I was wearing one of these all day... . I'm looking forward to learning more and starting on a few mods here and there.

 

Congrats. You will love your new Mini!

 

Congrats & welcome to the club! Minis are a blast, you'll love yours more every day....does it have a name yet?

 

Congrats. Glad you could find time between your planetary work go get some driving in.

 

Welcome aboard, glad your patience finally paid off and know how you feel with the smile plastered on your face, MOTOR ON!

 

welcome

 

Welcome, don't scare your mom too much

 

Better watch out. Now that your Mom knows what the MINI can do, she might commandeer it!

Welcome to MINIs and NAM!

 

Congratulations!
