Thanks Ferg!
I'm just reading your "Yorkie" thread,what a lovely car and an amazing amount of work put into it.
Any advice on good websites with Mini accessories?Or Ebay is my best bet?

Hi all,

Just signed up but have been reading the threads and advice for awhile now, great info so far and seems like a great community.

I'm about to make the jump into an MPI Mini and was looking for some advice on one, I've set up a tread and if you had any advice or knowledge of the car I'd really appricate it.

Hi. I'm Jordan live in Dublin and just got my second mini for Christmas. Replaced my 2005 cream mini one with a 2006 grey cooper s, before my mini one I had a fiat bravo. I have started going to cars and coffee with my new car and am absolutely loving it. Check my instagram for pictures if you want. Username is Jordanfaf

Hi Jordan and welcome to the site mate. Glad you are enjoying the new S, I saw your posted pic from the C&C this month, it looks really nice! Do you have any plans for the car or just enjoying it as it is for now?

Cheers

Hi Adrian. Plan on powder coating the alloys black and the break calipers to yellow. Might change the white pinstripes to yellow to match the calipers, but not sure yet. And I've just orderd my german pressed reg plates!

Hi. I'm new to the world of mini's having been a vw bug owner in a previous life. Took the leap into this century with my '03 mini cooper, and really loving it so far. Hoping to hear about any events happening through this site, and maybe get some tips on sourcing parts & mechanics.
Here's a pic of my new baby!
