Just arrived!

I can now say that the wait is over and I am now the proud owner of a '10 Horizon Blue Cooper S! I was glad to see that the car was fresh off the docks with all of the cardboard inserts still on the doors and plastic covering all the seats with all of 7 miles on the odometer. The crew at South Bay Mini are top notch and I would gladly do business with them again.

Congrats on the MCS. They are great cars that last if you maintain them well. I'm the original owner of a 02 MCS and it still kicks @ss.

Welcome to the forum, just make sure all the packing materials get removed, there have been a few instances on here of that not happening.

Congrats....They are great little cars but one of the things I always reccommend is don't let the oil change go over 5000 as mini doesn't change the oil until 10000+ miles. I have read on other forums including this one that owners are having problems with oil sludge and gunk in their engines and always use pemium gas as that has been another issue with MCS's.I have a 2007 MCS changed oil at 4-5000 miles w/46000 purring trouble free miles.Trust me your Mini will love you for it.
