I would love to join. I'm the very proud new owner of a 2009 Cooper S with the elusive tuscan beige leather interior. Took me 6 months of daily searching, then a flight to the other coast and a VERY fun drive home to find her!
The search for a MINI can be almost as fun as driving one. Nice one, you've got CROC member # 882

Joined NAM a long time ago when my wife got a new 2008 R55 Clubman, but have been Mini-less since 2012. Until two weeks ago, when I picked up a new to me 2008 Chili Red R56 MCS, which was the cleanest used car I've ever bought. We've nicknamed him (my wife says this one's a boy) Pepper and he has a bunch of options, though the most dominant visually is the Aero Kit. Hoping to post more now that the Mini is mine and not my wife's
Got the car for a DD though don't be surprised if my regular track car sits out for an autox or lapping session every now and then. Loving it so far, and looking forward to joining the CROC!
Out of town so low-res dealer photos are the best I can come up with at the moment, but I've already ordered a bunch of maintenence and black out parts (yes, my wife, who's at home receiving all these boxes, is very tolerant lol) and will post updated pics once I get back. Now to decide on a second set of wheels so I can put track tires on the stockers
Hey all. Love all the ChilI Reds. This is mine. 2006 R53 named Gadget the Red Dragon. She's my buddy
Sorry for the bad pic. Do you have any more room in the club?
Thanks! She needs a little touch up here and there but she's got character and makes my 45 min drive to and from work much more enjoyable. I'll try and get some more pics soon. How can I get a number and join the CROC entourage?

Very nice! Love my R53. Many years and miles of grins ahead.
Nice clean looking MINI; I've always liked the look and effort that goes into painted wheel arches. You've got CROC # 883
